Isomerization

The Isomerization reaction, a chemical reaction in which case a substance or chemical compound, isomer is transformed or chemically rearranged by a controlled breakdown reaction into another form of an isomer, this can be described in one particular case using beckmanns re-arrangement as an example in which case the oxime or ketoxime changes or transforms into an isomeric amide (similar to benzanilide) under the influence of heated chemical solution (or using of acidic dehydrating agents such as phosphorus penta-chloride .

The solution is essentially treated to chemically with a reactant to re-arrange the ketoxime into a form of acidic isomer by a from of controlled chemical breakdown.
