A mild oxidative method for the preparation of γ-hydroxy-α-nitroolefins from α,β-epoxyketoximes using IBX

An efficient method for the preparation of γ-hydroxy-α-nitroolefins from α,β-epoxyketoximes has been developed using IBX. The reaction occurs at room temperature without the formation of over-oxidation products and also has an easy work-up procedure.
