N-Cyclohexylhydroxylamine hydrochloride is used in the preparation of 4-carbethoxy-2-cyclohexyl-5-(2H)-isoxazolone and hexahydroisoxazolequinoline analogs. It is also used in the preparation of N-cyclohexyl nitrone by reaction with aldehyde. Further, it acts as a hydroxylamination reagent for allyl esters. In addition to this, it serves as a reagent in the conversion of 1,2-dicarboxylic acids to alfa-beta-unsaturated carboxylic acids.
This Thermo Scientific Chemicals brand product was originally part of the Alfa Aesar product portfolio. Some documentation and label information may refer to the legacy brand. The original Alfa Aesar product / item code or SKU reference has not changed as a part of the brand transition to Thermo Scientific Chemicals.
