Chloro oximes, reaction with substituted

Indoles have been prepared from reactions of o-aminophenylketones with reactive , or stable " arsonium ylides. Oxo-stabilized ylides reacted with 2-chloro-oximes to give trans-5-acyl-A -isoxazolines, and isoxazoles have been obtained from reactive arsonium ylides and a-isonitrosoketones, and from triphenylarsonium methylide and nitrile oxides The latter ylide reacts similarly with nitrile imines to give pyrazoles. With triphenylarsonium benzylides and benzoylylides,benzene diazonium salts give 1,3,4,6-substituted 1,4-dihydro-1,2,4,5-tetrazines in a reaction in which initial coupling of the reagents is followed by a dimerisation. ... 

The first clue to the existence of the SrnI mechanism came from product studies both in aliphatic and aromatic cases. It was noticed that in the reaction of benzyl and substituted benzyl chlorides with the 2-nitropropane anion, oxygen alkylation, yielding the oxime and then the aldehyde, occurs exclusively in the case of benzyl chloride and 3-nitrobenzyl chloride, whereas, with 4-nitrobenzyl chloride, the yield of aldehyde is only 6% and the carbon-alkylated (104) product is obtained in 92% yield (Kornblum, 1975). This was interpreted as the result of a competition between 8, 2 (O-alkylation) and S l (C-alkylation) reactions. In the aromatic case, it was observed that the reaction of 5- and 6-halopseudocumenes with KNHj in liquid ammonia (Kim and Bunnett, 1970) forms the 5- and 6-pseudocumi-dines in a ratio which is the same whether the starting compound is the 5- or 6-isomer in the case of the chloro- and bromo-derivatives, as expected from an aryne mechanism (Scheme 9), whereas much more non-rearranged... 

An interesting reaction is that between 6-methyl-4-nitropyridazine 1-oxide or its 3-substituted analogs (115) and acetyl chloride. Along with the expected 4-chloro derivatives (116) other products were isolated and later identified as 3-substituted 4-chloro-6-formyl-pyridazine 1-oxide oximes (117). ... 

Hydroxylamines deprotonated by KOH substitute for chloride in (chloro-arene)Cr(C0)3 in high yields [24]. Reaction of a (fluoroarene)Cr(CO)3 complex with dialkyl phosphite 12 resulted in formation of a phosphate 13 [25]. The ar-ylation of oximes under phase transfer conditions leads to a simple process for benzofuran formation [26].
