Acetonitrile → HCID 118108883, compound

Participants

Reaction Steps

1.2 mL of acetonitrile, 0.6 mL of water and 0.1 g of O-methylhydroxylamine hydrochloride were added to 0.2 g of N-benzyl-N-(2-hydroxyoxolan-3-yl)benzamide, and the obtained mixture was then stirred at room temperature for 0.5 hours. The reaction mixture was then left at rest for 11 hours. Thereafter, hexane, ethyl acetate and water were added to the reaction mixture, and the water layer was then removed. The organic layer was successively washed with water and a saturated sodium chloride aqueous solution, and was then dried over anhydrous sodium sulfate. After that, the solvent was distilled away under reduced pressure. The obtained residue was purified by silica gel column chromatography (hexane/ethyl acetate=60/40 to 30/70), so as to obtain 99 mg of N-benzyl-N-(4-hydroxy-1-(methoxyimino)butan-2-yl)-4-methylbenzamide in the form of a colorless oily product.
