In this account, we describe recent developments in copper‐catalyzed skeletal 2,3‐rearrangement reactions of O ‐propargylic oximes to form four‐membered cyclic nitrones, pyridine N ‐oxides, and amidodienes via N ‐allenylnitrone intermediates. The sequence of events leading up to our encounter with O ‐propargylic oximes is also presented.
