Abstract
A reaction of aliphatic 1,2-hydroxylamino oximes bearing the hydroxylamino group at the secondary carbon atom with aromatic and heteroaromatic aldehydes in acetic acid leads to the corresponding 1-hydroxy-2-aryl(hetaryl)-4,5-dialkylimidazoles in high yields. α-Aryl(hetaryl)-nitrones initially formed by the condensation of 1,2-hydroxylamino oximes with aldehydes are quantitatively converted to the corresponding imidazoles.
