Abstract:

Amidoxime compounds have been widely used in many business，such as materials industry and chemical engineering because of their excellent absorption property for metallic ions and diversified varieties. This paper introduces the synthesis of amidoxime compounds and their intermediates including cyanoethylation，polymerization and amidoximation. The development in synthesis and application of amidoxime compounds are reviewed. Prospects for future development of amidoxime compounds are also presented．
