Reaction Steps

To a solution of benzaldehyde (325 mg, 311 μL, 3.06 mmol) in HCl (4M in dioxane, 10 mL was added (E)-2-(hydroxyimino)-1-phenylpropan-1-one (500 mg, 3.06 mmol) at 0-5° C. The ice bath was removed and the mixture was stirred at RT for 24 h. All volatiles were removed and the residue was dissolved in HCl (4M in dioxane, 10 mL). The reaction mixture was stirred at RT for 6 h and concentrated. The obtained suspension was filtered, washed with diethyl ether and dried in vacuo to give the product as colorless solid (398 mg, 1.58 mmol, 51.7%).
