Reaction Steps

At 0°-5° C., dry HCl was bubble through a solution of p-tolualdehyde (125 g, 1.04 mol) and 3-oximino-2-butanone (95.6 g, 0.946 mol) in 350 ml of ethyl acetate. Title product was precipitated by dilution with ether and recovered by filtration with ether wash, 207 g; mp 198°-200° C. (dec).
