Abstract

Facile polyethylene glycol (PEG-400) promoted synthesis of oximes

Author(s): D.Sudhakar, V.Madhava Rao, V.Siddaiah, C.Venkata Rao

A catalyst-free, high-yielding conversion of aldehydes and ketones into oximes has efficiently been carried out by treatment with NH2OH.HCl at room temperature using polyethylene glycol (PEG-400) as the reaction medium.
