What is a Schiff’s base?
Schiff bases, named after the German chemist Hugo Schiff, are compounds with the general structure R1R2C=NR3, where R3 is an alkyl or aryl group (but not hydrogen). They are considered a subclass of imines and can be synthesized by reacting an aliphatic or aromatic amine with a carbonyl compound.
Schiff’s bases increase both the chemical stability and the tenacity of the aldehyde components. The molecular weight is much higher and they are therefore less volatile. The chemical reaction and evaporation are therefore slowed down.
