Procedure

To a solution containing 19.2 g of ethyl 2-methylbenzoylformate (0.1 mol) and 100 ml of ethanol, 7.6 g of hydroxylamine hydrochloride (0.11 mol) was added and the resulting mixture was heated under reflux for 5 hours. Afterwards, the solvent was distilled off under reduced pressure as a work-up procedure to give a solid. The solid, to which hexane was added, was pulverized and 14.1 g of ethyl (E)-α-hydroxyimino-o-tolylacetate (yield; 68%) was filtered off. Furthermore, the concentrated residue of the filtrate, to which ethanol and a catalytic amount of thionyl chloride were added, was heated under reflux for 5 hours. The same work-up procedure as shown above was then employed to give 4.5 g of the objective product (yield; 21%). mp 88.0-89.0° C.
