Abstract

Ethyl amino-oximinoacetate. Ethyl chloro-oximinoacetate (1.0 g., 0.0066 mole), dissolved in 50 ml. of dry ether, was treated with dry ammonia gas at 0". The precipitated ammonium chloride was filtered with suction and the filtrate waa evaporated uuder reduced pressure. The crystalline residue, mp 97-98", weighed 0.51 g.(58%) and did not depress the melting point of authentic material. The sodium salt was obtained as a yellow solid in 97% yield by ...
