Abstract

The chlorination of benzaldoximes in commercial chloroform and methylene chloride was undertaken. It was found that substituted oximes which possess electron-wtihdrawing groups gave bend chloride derivatives upon chlorination in methylene chloride and pure chloroform. On the other hand, benzhydroxamic chloride derivatives were obtained when chlorination was performed in commercial chloroform and methylene chloride containing ...
