A mixture of phenylglyoxylic acid (3.0 g.), isopropoxyamine hydrochloride (2.5 g.), ethanol (100 ml) and water (50 ml) was stirred and adjusted to pH 4.5 to 5 with sodium hydroxide solution (2N). The solution was stirred for 5 hr. maintaining the pH at 4.5-5 with further additions of sodium hydroxide solution. The ethanol was removed by evaporation, the aqueous residue acidified and the product collected by extraction with ethyl acetate. Evaporation of the ethyl acetate gave a brown oil (4.2 g.). that was esterified conventionally with diazomethane to give a mixture of the syn and anti methyl esters of the title compound as an oil (4.04 g.).
