Definitions
American Heritage® Dictionary of the English Language, Fourth Edition
- n. Any of a group of compounds containing a CNOH group, formed by treating aldehydes or ketones with hydroxylamine.
Century Dictionary and Cyclopedia
- n. A compound formed by the action of hydroxylamine on an aldehyde (aldoxime) or a ketone (ketoxime). The oximes contain the atomic grouping=C:N.OH. They have played an important part in the study of the stereochemistry of nitrogen. Their formation indicates the presence of carbonyl oxygen in the substances from which they are derived.
Wiktionary
- n. organic chemistry Any of a class of organic compounds, of general formula RR'C=NOH, derived from the condensation of an aldehyde (R' = H) or ketone with hydroxylamine.
GNU Webster's 1913
- n. (Chem.) One of a series of isonitroso derivatives obtained by the action of hydroxylamine on aldehydes or ketones.
