Hydrazones and Azines of Diary1 Ketones B Y H. HARRYSZMANT AND CLARE MCGINNIS

I n this paper we wish to report convenient procedures for the preparation of hydrazones and azines of diaryl ketones. We also wish to consider the reasons for the distinctive behavior of diaryl ketones in reactions with the common reagents for the carbonyl group when compared to other types of carbonyl compounds. The reaction of hydrazine with carbonyl compounds proceeds with increasing difficulty as the carbonyl compound varies in the order aldehyde < dialkyl ketone
