✦ Synopsis

Reactions of aliphatic tertiary amine N-oxides have attracted relatively little attention compared to aromatic heterocyclic N-oxides. One group of reaction's which fall in this category ie deoxygenation. Aliphatio N-oxides are comparatively less resistant to deoxygenation than aromatic N-oxides. ' Deoxygenation of aliphatic N-oxides, e.g. dimethylaniline N-oxide, has been accom-.

plished with a variety of reagents such as sulfurous acid', phosphorus trichloride2, and sulfur in liquid ammonia3.
