Conclusions In the reaction of N-chloro-N-methoxy-N,N-dimethylurea with amines, a nucleophilic substitution of the chlorine atom at the N atom takes place to form N-alkoxyhydrazines, which are stable in the reaction with Me₃N, pyridine, toluenesulfonamides, and give products of further transformations with Me₂NH and MeONHMe.For Communication 28 see [1].Translated from Izvestiya Akademii Nauk SSSR, Seriya Khimicheskaya, No. 3, pp. 606–610, March, 1986.
