Participants

Reaction Steps

E-α-hydroxyimino-2-(4-methylphenoxy)phenylacetic acid methyl ester (1.00 g, 0.0035 mole) was dissolved in methanol (7 ml) and 40% methylamine solution in methanol (0.54 g, 0.007 mole) was added to the mixture, which was refluxed for 70 minutes. A 40% methylamine solution in methanol (1.36 g, 0.0175 mole) was further added to the mixture, which was refluxed for 3 hours. After completion of the reaction, the reaction mixture was concentrated under reduced pressure to give E-2-hydroxyimino-N-methyl-2-[2-(4-methylphenoxy)phenyl]acetamide (1.00 g, yield: 100.0%) as an amorphous.
