An improved process for preparing o-chloromethylphenylglyoxylic esters of the formula (I) which comprises converting a compound of the formula (II) by reaction with magnesium into the corresponding Grignard reagent which is then reacted with a compound of the formula (III) to give the compound of the formula (IV) which is then cleaved by reaction with a chloroformic ester of the formula ClCOOR4 or by reaction with phosgene to give the compound of the formula (I), followed by the isolation of the compound of the formula (I), and also an improved process for preparing (E)-2-(2-chloromethylphenyl)- 2-alkoximinoacetic esters of the formula (VII) and intermediates for their preparation.
