Procedure

To a stirred solution of 3-(2,4-dichloro-phenyl)-2-(methoxyimino)-propionic acid methyl ester (isomers E/Z) (0.25 g; 0.90 mmol) in diethyl ether (4.0 ml) under argon at 0° C., was added portionwise sodium borohydride (0.14 g; 3.6 mmol). The mixture was stirred for 2 hours at 0° C. and allowed to warm up at 20° C. for 16 h. The mixture was poured carefully in 2 N hydrochloric acid (6 ml) and extracted with ethyl acetate (3×5 ml). Combined organics were dried over sodium sulfate and evaporated under reduced pressure. The crude oil obtained was subject to flash chromatography (eluant: c-hexane/ethyl acetate 7:3) to afford 65 mg (30% of theory) of 1-(2,4-dichloro-phenyl)-3-hydroxy-propan-2-one O-methyl-oxime (mixture of E/Z-isomers) as a clear sticky oil.
