Novel alpha-hydrogen substituted nitroxyl compounds and their corresponding oxidized (oxoammonium cations) and reduced (hydroxylamine) forms, and the use of such compounds, inter alia, for oxidation of primary and secondary alcohols to aldehydes and ketones, respectively; resolution of racemic alcohols; desymmetrization of meso-alcohol; as radicals and spin trapping reagents; and as polymerization agents. Processes for preparing the novel nitroxyl/oxoammonium/hydroxylamine compounds from the corresponding amines, and certain novel amine derivatives and their uses. The compounds and amine precursors are useful as ligands for transition metals and as organocatalysts in e.g., aldol reactions.
