Reaction Conditions

Reaction Steps

A mixture of 34 parts of N,N-dimethyl-2-hydroxyimino-3-methoxyiminobutyramide, 350 parts of methylene chloride, 13 parts of methyl isocyanate and one-tenth part triethylenediamine was stirred at 25° C. for 3 hours and then refluxed for 1 hour. The solvent was removed by stripping under reduced pressure (15 mm.) at 50° bath temperature, thereby affording the solid crude product. Recrystallization from a benzene-acetonitrile mixture gave 32 parts of N,N-dimethyl-3-methoxyimino-2-[(methylcarbamoyl)oximino]butyramide, m.p. 172°-173° C.
