Abstract

Abstract Triphenylarsinimines formed in situ from isocyanates and triphenylarsine oxide have been found to react smoothly with carbonyl compounds like aldehydes, quinones and aromatic ketones giving the corresponding Schiff's bases in high yields. In the case of aldehydes, quinones or activated ketones, eg, α-diketones, only a catalytic amount of triphenylarsine oxide is necessary for the reaction to proceed to completion. Quinones ...
