Abstract: A combination of oxalic acid dihydrate and sodium nitrite in the presence of wet SiO₂ was used as an effective nitrosating agent for the nitrosation of β-diketones to their corresponding α-oximinoketones in moderate to excellent yields under mild and heterogenous conditions.

Keywords: Nitrosation; α-Oximination; β-diketones; oxalic acid dihydrate
