3-Chloro-2-isothiocyanato-1-propenyl alkyl(aryl) ketones react with hydroxylamine hydrochloride to give 3-alkyl(aryl)-5-chloromethylisoxazole. Treatment of the latter with dimethylamine and ammonium thiocyanate leads to formation of previously unknown 3-alkyl(aryl)-5-dimethylamino(or isothiocyanato)methylisoxazoles.
