Synthesis of Schiff’s Base Derivatives Using Water as Solvent.(A Green Methodology)

Abstract

The synthetic work has been done by using the various substituted aromatic aldehydes and ethylene diamine under mild conditions using water as green solvent. On completion of reaction the product was separated. dried, and recrystallized from ethanol to obtained 75-90 % yield. All these advantages make this methodology an alternative platform to the conventional method and also make it significant under the umbrella of environmentally greener and safer processes.
