Dimethylglyoxime is a chemical compound described by the formula CH₃C(NOH)C(NOH)CH₃. Its abbreviation is dmgH₂ for neutral form, and dmgH for anionic form, where H stands for hydrogen. This colourless solid is the dioxime derivative of the diketone butane-2,3-dione (also known as diacetyl). DmgH₂ is used in the analysis of palladium or nickel. Its coordination complexes are of theoretical interest as models for enzymes and as catalysts. Many related ligands can be prepared from other diketones, e.g. benzil.

Preparation

Dimethylglyoxime can be prepared from butanone first by reaction with ethyl nitrite to give biacetyl monoxime. The second oxime is installed using sodium hydroxylamine monosulfonate:[1]

Complexes

Dimethylglyoxime forms complexes with metals including Nickel[2], Palladium, and Cobalt[3]. These complexes are used to separate those complexes from solutions of metal salts. It is also used in precious metals refining to precipitate palladium from solutions of palladium chloride.

gollark: 🐟💻🐟

gollark: I mean, generally speaking, any player can remove about 16-24 generic eggs from the cave per day and then dump them somewhere, with about 10 minutes of work. Obviously, if you want to gather nongeneric ones you either need more time or lower targets.

gollark: It'd be pointless.

gollark: The 16-24 eggs a day thing is that you can gather eggs from the cave, then wait five hours, then trade/gift/dump then, then do it again maybe twice more.

gollark: None!
