In organic chemistry, atoms other than carbon and hydrogen are generally referred to as heteroatoms. The most common heteroatoms are nitrogen, oxygen and sulfur. Now I present to you an article called Furan compounds. V. Preparation and configuration of furyl ketoximes, published in 1958, which mentions a compound: 3194-15-8, mainly applied to , Name: 1-(Furan-2-yl)propan-1-one.

The preparation of the pairs of ketoximes permitted for the 1st time a systematic comparative spectroscopic examination UV absorption spectra for furfural oxime (IX), IIa, IIb, and IV showed a single maximum at 270 mμ, IIc had 2 maximum, and the spectra of VI and VIII were complicated. The syn- and anti-isomers showed a small difference in wave length but a larger difference in intensity. Based on the established configuration of IX, the chem. assigned configurations were spectroscopically confirmed. The preferential formation of anti-isomers in alk. media and of isomeric mixtures in neutral or acid media and the mechanism of the rearrangement in ethereal HCl were discussed.
