Pyridine → 3-hydroxy-4-propoxybenzaldehyde O-methyloxime

Participants

Reaction Steps

An amount of 3-hydroxy-4-propoxybenzaldehyde (150 mg, 0.83 mmol) is added pyridine (4.0 ml) at room temperature, followed by addition of methoxylamine hydrogen chloride (101.2 mg, 1.2 mmol). The mixture is stirred at ambient temperature for 24 h, and 4 mL of water is added. After the solvents were evaporated, the residue is dissolved 8 mL of anhydrous ether, washed successively with 2 mL of aqueous sodium bicarbonate, 2 mL of sodium bisulfite, and 2 mL of brine. Dried over magnesium sulfate, evaporated to give a yellow solid (210 mg). MS (ESI) m/z 210.5 (M+1)
