Reaktionsschritte

A suspension of 2-(isothiazol-4-yl)glyoxylic acid (240 mg.), magnesium hydroxide (290 mg.) and hydroxylamino hydrochloride (140 mg.) in a mixture of ethanol (2 ml.) and water (10 ml.) was stirred for 2 hours at ambient temperature and allowed to stand overnight at ambient temperature. Ethanol was distilled off and to the residue was added ethyl acetate. The mixture was adjusted to pH 1 with 10% hydrochloric acid and the ethyl acetate layer was washed with water and dried over magnesium sulfate. The solvent was distilled off under reduced pressure to give 2-hydroxyimino-2-(isothiazol-4-yl)acetic acid (syn isomer) (0.20 g.), mp 159° to 161° C. (dec.).
