Abstract
The thermolysis of ω-dimethylamino-1-alkanol N-oxides affords ω-hydroxy-1-alkenes with dimethylhydroxylamine in good yields. The other basic products ( amino alcohol and isoxazolidine) involve oxidation-reduction process between the tertiary amine N-oxide and dimethylhydroxylamine, followed by 1,3-dipolar cycloaddition reaction. Pyrolysis of 5-piperidino-1-pentanol N-oxide proceeds on a path similar to the N-dimethyl compounds. The elimination of an hydrogen atom of the heterocycle does not occur: the preferred planar transition state cannot be attained because of the steric requirements of the ring.
