Benzaldoxime, predominantly the (E)-isomer, is widely used in organic synthesis as an intermediate for producing various chemicals, including pharmaceuticals and agrochemicals. It serves as a precursor in the synthesis of nitriles, which are valuable in manufacturing dyes, plastics, and rubber chemicals. Additionally, it is employed in coordination chemistry as a ligand to form complexes with metals, which are studied for their catalytic properties. In analytical chemistry, it is utilized for the detection and quantification of specific metal ions due to its chelating ability. Its role in research extends to studying reaction mechanisms and developing new synthetic pathways in organic chemistry.
