Aldimines
Definition
A class of nitrogenous organic compounds formally derived from an aldehyde, by replacing the carbonyl oxygen atom with an imino group (=N-R or =N-H). These represent secondary imines or Schiff bases with the general structure R-CH=N-R', serving as highly valuable intermediates in fine organic synthesis, drug manufacturing, and enzymatic biochemistry.
