Abstract
Oxime ethers were synthesised in a one-pot, four-component reaction from cinnamaldehyde crotonaldehyde, hydroxylamine hydrochloride, anhydrous sodium carbonate and some alkyl halides. Alkyl halides also served as the solvent of the reaction. The reactions were completed in about 1 hour with yields of 57 to 84%.
