Simple synthesis of a-oxime derivatives of 2-ketomethyl quinolines under mild and heterogeneous conditions
2-Ketomethyl quinolines are converted to their alpha-oximinoketone derivatives in quantitative yields using sodium nitrite in the presence of silica sulfuric acid as nitrosating agent under mild and heterogeneous conditions.
