Summary
-
1.
Alkylisoxazoles are prepared by the reaction of β-chlorovinyl ketones with hydroxylamine. This reaction can be used as a preparative method for synthesizing isoxazoles.
-
2.
It is shown that the substances obtained are mixtures of the isomeric α- and σ-alkylisoxazoles.
-
3.
It is shown that the chlorine atom in 3-chloromethylisoxazole is very readily replaced and may be exchanged for bromine, iodine, and the cyanide group.
