Question

The carbonyl carbon in aldehydes and ketones is involved in the formation of

Answer 1

Explanation:

Aldehydes and ketones react with primary amines to form a class of compounds called imines. ... An unshared pair of electrons on the nitrogen of the amine is attracted to the partial‐positive carbon of the carbonyl group. 2. A proton is transferred from the nitrogen to the oxygen anion.
