Participants

Reaction Steps

To a suspension of cis/trans-ethyl 4-(chloro(hydroxyimino)methyl)cyclohexanecarboxylate (1.85 g, 7.92 mmol) and ethyl acetimidate hydrochloride (1.96 g, 15.8 mmol) in dichloromethane (40 ml) was added triethylamine (2.2 ml, 16 mmol) at 0-5° C. The cooling bath was removed 15 minutes after completed addition, and stirring for 18 h at room temperature was followed by heating at reflux for 4 h. The reaction mixture was washed with one 50-ml portion of 1 M aqueous hydrochloric acid solution. The aqueous layer was extracted with two 50-ml portions of dichloromethane. The combined organic layers were dried over anhydrous sodium sulfate and concentrated in vacuo. Flash-chromatography with n-heptane/tert-butyl methyl ether as eluent gave the title compound (1.05 g, 56%) as colorless oil. MS m/e: 239 ([M+H]+)
