The reaction was then poured into water and extracted with ethyl acetate. The combined extracts were dried, concentrated and triturated with hexane to give 3-acetyl-isoquinoline oxime (0.63, 89% yield) as a white crystalline solid m.p. 135°-142° C.; 1H NMR: 2.50(3H,s); 7.61(1H,t); 7.70(1H,t); 7.87(1H,d); 7.99(1H,d); 8.11(1H,s); 9.28(1H,s) ppm.
