When Acetone Is Treated with Hydroxylamine?

(i) Acetone reacts with hydroxylamine to form only one product which has no geometrical isomer

geometrical isomer
Cis–trans isomerism, also known as geometric isomerism or configurational isomerism, is a term used in organic chemistry. ... In the context of chemistry, cis indicates that the functional groups (substituents) are on the same side of some plane, while trans conveys that they are on opposing sides.
, but acetaldehyde reacts with hydroxylamine to form a product which has two geometrical isomers.

How does acetone react with hydroxylamine?

Acetone oxime is synthesized by the condensation of acetone and hydroxylamine in the presence of HCl: (CH3)2CO + H2NOH → (CH3)2CNOH + H2O. It can also be generated via ammoxidation of acetone in the presence of hydrogen peroxide.

What is the action of hydroxylamine on acetaldehyde?

(ii) Acetaldehyde (CH3CHO) reacts with Hydroxylamine (NH2OH) to give acetaldoxime as a product. ... Further, proceed reaction when using heat in the reaction, its gives aldol condensation product which is But-2-enal.
