Acetonitrile → HCID 118108924, compound

Participants

Reaction Steps

12 mL of acetonitrile, 6 mL of water and 1.0 g of O-methylhydroxylamine hydrochloride were added to 0.98 g of the 5-phenyloxolan-2-ol, and thereafter, 1.08 mL of triethylamine was added dropwise to the mixture. The thus obtained mixture was stirred at room temperature for 0.5 hours. Thereafter, hexane, ethyl acetate and water were added to the reaction mixture, and the water layer was then removed. The organic layer was dried over anhydrous sodium sulfate. After that, the solvent was distilled away under reduced pressure, so as to obtain 1.10 g of 4-(methoxyimino)-1-phenylbutan-1-ol in the form of a colorless oily product.
