Abstract
Schiff bases(Ketimines) were prepared from Methyl-1-naphthyl-ketone with 2-Hydroxy-aniline, 3-Hydroxyaniline, 4-Hydroxy-aniline, 3-Nitroanilines and 4-Bromo-aniline using toluene as solvent by azeotropic(reflux) method using Dean and Stark. The synthesized ketimines were characterized by colour, physical constants, TLC and FTIR spectra. The purity of the synthesized compounds was confirmed from the information gathered from TLC, elemental and FTIR spectral analysis.
