Question

the product formed by reaction of an aldehyde with a primary amines is?

Answer 1

Reaction with Primary Amines to form Imines. The reaction of aldehydes and ketones with ammonia or 1º-amines forms imine derivatives, also known as Schiff bases (compounds having a C=N function). Water is eliminated in the reaction, which is acid-catalyzed and reversible in the same sense as acetal formation.

Answer 2

Reaction with Primary Amines to form Imines. The reaction of aldehydes and ketones with ammonia or 1º-amines forms imine derivatives, also known as Schiff bases (compounds having a C=N function). Water is eliminated in the reaction, which is acid-catalyzed and reversible in the same sense as acytal formation
