Aldoxime
Definition
A nitrogenous organic compound belonging to the oxime class, formally or practically obtained through the condensation reaction of an aldehyde with hydroxylamine (NH2OH), having the general structure R-CH=N-OH. This type of oxime is characterized by the presence of a hydrogen atom bonded to the azomethine carbon, unlike ketoximes, serving as a valuable intermediate in nitrile and amide synthesis.
