Abstract
Use of a combination of ionic liquids in the presence of aluminium chloride and microwave irradiation was shown to be a very efficient and high-yielding method for the dehydration of aldoximes and also for 1,3-dipolar cycloadditions. Surprisingly, the presence of acrylonitrile rendered an unusual formation of substituted amide.
