Benzaldehyde reacts with primary aromatic amines to form Schiff’s base. underset textBenzaldehydeC6H5CH = O + underset textAniline C6H5NH2 arrow underset textSchiff ’s base C6H5CH = NC6H5+H2O

Q. When aniline reacts with oil of bitter almonds $(C_{6} H_{5} C H O)$ condensation takes place and benzal derivative is formed. This is known as

Schiff’s base

Benedict’s reagent

Millon’s base

Schiff’s reagent.

Benzaldehyde reacts with primary aromatic amines to form Schiff’s base. $Benzaldehyde C_{6} H_{5} C H = O + Aniline C_{6} H_{5} N H_{2} \to Schiff ’s base C_{6} H_{5} C H = N C_{6} H_{5} + H_{2} O$
