Abstract: Triarylamine-N-oxides are mainly of interest to theoretical organic chemists. The first mention of triphenylamine-N-oxide (I) [1] was an erroneous one. In fact, in the original paper [2] I has not been described. In reference [3] the acetone solution of the I : UO2Cl2 1:1 complex was described without any experimental data for the above mentioned complex or for the ligand preparation. Up to the present time no synthetic procedure for triarylamine-N-oxide preparation were described. Their stability seems tobe much lower than the stability of other known amine-N-oxides. In our opinion, (4,4¢,4¢¢-trimethyl)- triphenylamine (II) forms a relatively stable (4,4¢,4¢¢-trimethyl)-triphenylamine-N-oxide (III).
