Procedure

19.0 g (137 mmol) of 3-methoxybenzaldehyde were added to a solution of 18.0 g (137 mmol) of 4-methylpentane-2,3-dione 2-oxime in 30 g (99 mmol) of solution of hydrogen chloride in acetic acid (12%) and 30 g (164 mmol) of solution of hydrogen chloride in ethylene glycol dimethyl ether (20%). The reaction was stirred at 50-55° C. for 3 hours and at room temperature for 60 hours. Subsequently, 500 ml of water and 300 ml of tert-butyl methyl ether were added before a pH of 3-4 was established by adding sodium hydrogen carbonate. After phase separation, the aqueous phase was extracted twice with 100 ml each time of tert-butyl methyl ether. The combined organic phases were washed with 4×100 ml of water and concentrated fully under reduced pressure.
