General description

Hydroxylamine-O-sulfonic acid is a versatile synthetic reagent.[1] It is widely employed as a nucleophile and as an electrophile in various organic syntheses. It can be synthesized by reacting hydroxylamine sulfate with 30% fuming H2SO4.[2]

Application

Hydroxylamine-O-sulfonic acid (HOSA) may be employed in the preparation of the following:
  • monosubstituted and 1,1-disubstituted hydrazines[2]
  • symmetrically substituted pyrroles[2]
  • aniline[2]
  • C-substituted amino derivatives[2]
  • lactams[1]
Hydroxylamine-O-sulfonic acid may be used in the following processes:
As a nitrogen transfer reagent for the conversion of aldehydes to nitriles in aqueous medium.[3]
Synthesis of N-aminopiperidine (NAPP) by reacting with piperidine.[4]
