(<i>E</i>)-5-(Methoxyimino)-1,3,4,5-tetrahydro-2<i>H</i>-benzo[<i>b</i>]azepin-2-one

Abstract

(E)-5-(Methoxyimino)-1,3,4,5-tetrahydro-2H-benzo[b]azepin-2-one was prepared by a condensation reaction from 3,4-dihydro-1H-benzo[b]azepin-2,5-dione and O-methylhydroxylamine. The configuration at the C=N double bond was determined by X-ray crystallography.
