Procedure
To a solution of 5.0 g of 3-chloro-4-methylbenzaldehyde in 40 mL of methanol and 30 mL of water, 4.7 g of hydroxylamine hydrochloride was added and the resultant mixture was stirred at room temperature for 2 hours. After the completion of the reaction, the reaction mixture was diluted with 70 mL of ethyl acetate and the diluted reaction mixture was washed with water (30 mL×1) and then dehydrated and dried over saturated saline and anhydrous sodium sulfate in this order, followed by distilling off the solvent under reduced pressure to obtain 5.1 g of the objective substance as a white crystal. This crystal was used in the next process as it was without being further purified.
