Abstract

A number of secondary amines have been subjected to the Sommelet reaction, and the amounts of aromatic aldehydcs produced from them have been determined. Most of the observations are better correlated on the assumption that the first step in the Angyal mechanism of reaction is the loss of a hydride ion from the nitrogen atom rather than from an adjacent carbon atom
