Participants

Reaction Steps

2-p-Tolylethyl bromide and pyruvic acid oxime are reacted by the process of Example 1 and the reaction mixture is evaporated when the reaction is complete. The residue is taken up in a little water, washed with diethyl ether and the aqueous solution is acidified. The precipitate obtained is filtered off with suction and dried to give a yield of 41% of theory of 2-(2-p-tolylethyloxyimino)-propionic acid; m.p. 106°-108° C.
