Talk:Pechiney–Ugine–Kuhlmann process
Shouldn't it be noted in this article the importance of the coreagent amide? It's pretty well the only thing separating this process from the simpler Ketazine process. With the coreagent amide it boosts the azine yields to acceptable levels for industrial purposes which is why this process is a named process rather than just the "ketazine process".

Making hydroxylamine
[edit]This article indicates that this process produced ketone azine from acetone (2 eq.), ammonia (2 eq.) and hydrogen peroxide (1 eq.) and a feed mix includes H2O2:ketone:NH3 in a molar ratio of about 1:2:4.. If using acetone (1 eq.), ammonia (1 eq.) and hydrogen peroxide (1 eq.) and the same feed mix in a ratio of 1:1:1, would the resulting oxaziridine be hydrolyzed to yield hydroxylamine in an empirical sense? That is to say the oxaziridine would rearrange in the presence of water from consumed hydrogen peroxide to the corresponding ketoxime ? Or would the oxaziridine undergo rearrangement to the corresponding N-substituted amide ? -- Mountainninja (talk) 02:18, 6 May 2014 (UTC)
