- Represents the chemical structure of LIX 860-I
A- Preparation of oxime:
Classically, oximes are prepared [2] by refluxing an alcoholic solution of a carbonyl compound with hydroxylamine hydrochloride and pyridine. The method has multiple drawbacks such as low yields, long reaction time, toxicity of pyridine, and effluent pollution caused by the use of organic solvent.
However,
Carbonyl compounds (aliphatic, heterocyclic, and aromatic) were converted into the corresponding oximes in excellent yields by simply grinding the reactants at room temperature without using any solvent in the presence of Bi2O3. Most importantly, this method minimizes waste disposal problems, provides a simple yet efficient example of unconventional methodology and requires short time.
Typical procedure for the formation of oxime 2
A mixture of aldehyde/ketone 1 (1 mmol), hydroxylamine hydrochloride (1.2 mmol), and Bi2O3 (0.6 mmol) was grounded in a mortar with a pestle for the required period of time. On completion of the reaction as monitored by TLC, ethyl acetate (2 × 10 mL) was added to the reaction mixture and filtered to separate the Bi2O3. The filtrate was concentrated down to approx. 6 mL, then added water to it when product precipitated out from the solution. The precipitate was filtered out and dried in high vacuum to furnish the pure oxime 2 in 60-98% yield.

Synthesis process of 2-hydroxy-5-nonylacetophenone
embodiment 1:
In exsiccant 250ml round-bottomed flask, add 4-nonyl phenol 35.2g (0.16mol), 13g (0.32mol) anhydrous acetonitrile, 80ml anhydrous tetrahydro furan, the 4g Zinc Chloride Anhydrous feeds the exsiccant hydrogen chloride gas then, is warming up to 40 ℃ of about 4h of reaction, being cooled to 0 ℃ then and leaving standstill 3h, separate out the safran precipitation, promptly is the nonyl phenol ketoimine, filter, filter cake washs with tetrahydrofuran (THF), filter cake is changed in the there-necked flask of 1L, adds 0.6L hot water, backflow 1h, system becomes yellow solution, and cooling is filtered, filtrate is used decolorizing with activated carbon, product extracts with toluene, and underpressure distillation goes out solvent, gets product 2-hydroxyl-5-nonylacetophenone, yield 82%, purity 87%.
