Lossen rearrangement

Lossen rearrangement

The Lossen rearrangement is the chemical reaction of a hydroxamic acid 1 with a dehydration agent (such as tosyl chloride) to form the O-derivative 2, which spontaneously rearranges to form an isocyanate 3.Ref|Lossen1872Ref|Lossen1874

Several reviews have been published.Ref|Yale1943Ref|Bauer1974Ref|Shiori1991

Hydroxamic acids are commonly synthesized from their corresponding esters.Ref|Hauser1939
