Hydrochloric Acid → HCID 21670873, compound

Participants

Reaction Steps

Following the general procedure of Example 1, about 7.5 parts of elemental chlorine were added over a 21/2 hour period to a solution of 17.3 parts of 2,2-dimethoxycyclohexanone oxime and a catalytic amount of anhydrous hydrogen chloride dissolved in about 85 parts dry methylene chloride. The reaction contents were maintained at a temperature of about 25° to 35° C. under a dry nitrogen atmosphere. After the addition was completed, the contents were allowed to stir for an additional half hour and were then treated by the procedure as described in Example 1. There was obtained 19.9 parts (90% of theory) of product 3-chloro-2,2-dimethoxycyclohexanone oxime as determined by nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy.
