Microwave Promoted Regeneration of Carbonyl Compounds from Oximes Using N, N-Dichloro Poly(Styrene-co-divinylbenzene)Sulphonamide Resin

An efficient, economically viable and operationally simple method was developed for deoximation of oximes (of ketones and aldehydes) to their corresponding carbonyl compounds using polymer beads of N, N-dichloro poly(styrene-co-divinylbenzene) sulphonamide resin. Polymeric reagent offered speedy conversion and substantial yields of products under mild condition and is recyclable. Deoximation was monitored by the use of C-13 NMR.
