Solution:

$2 CH _{3} COOH \xrightarrow{{ CaCO _{3}}}\underset{A}{\left( CH _{3} COO \right)_{2}} Ca \xrightarrow[{-CaCO_3}]{{\Delta}}$
$\underset{B}{CH _{3} COCH _{3}} \xrightarrow[{-H_2O}]{{ NH _{2} OH }} CH _{3} \underset{\underset{\underset{\underset{C}{\text{acetoxime}}}{NOH}}{||}}{C} - CH _{3}$
