Synthesis of Aromatic Diketoximes and their Complexes with Nickel Salts

Abstract

The diketoximes of 4,4'-diacetyldiphenyl oxide and 4,4'-diacetyldiphenyl sulfide were synthesized, the possibility of their use for the synthesis of simple and complex polyesters and polypyrroles, as well as the ability to complex with nickel salts. Organic chemistry used oximes in the 19th century, afterward, as an analytical reagent in the 20th century. Currently, oximes are superior to carbonyl compounds and alcohols in the variety of reactions and the widespread use in synthetic chemistry. Oximes easily turn into other classes of organic compounds – amines, cyano and nitro compounds, carbonyl compounds, heterocyclic compounds, including pyrroles, imidazoles, pyridines, they can be used as suitable compounds with salts of Cu (II), Ni (II), Zn (II), Cd (II), and Co (II). Oximes with complex heterocyclic and aromatic substituents are used as intermediates in fine organic synthesis. It should be noted that oximes have a wide spectrum of biocidal action and are used as anti-inflammatory, antiviral, antimicrobial agents, insecticides. Their versatile biological activity is considered in the preparation of antidepressant, sedative, vasodilator and other drugs [1].
