RESUMO
An efficient method for the copper-catalyzed N-arylation of hydroxylamines with aryl iodides is described. A variety of N- and O-functionalized hydroxylamines were transformed in good to excellent yield with a broad range of aryl coupling partners. Methods for the selective deprotection of either the N- or O-substituents for further functionalization are also described.

[chemical reaction: see text]. A simple, one-pot method for the alpha-acyloxylation of carbonyl compounds that proceeds at room temperature in the presence of both moisture and air has been developed. Treatment of a variety of aldehydes and both cyclic and acyclic ketones with N-methyl-O-benzoylhydroxylamine hydrochloride provides the alpha-functionalized product in 69-92% isolated yield. The transformation is tolerant of a wide range of functional groups and, significantly, is regiospecific in the discrimination of secondary over primary centers in the case of nonsymmetrical substrates.
