Azines

Term · Chemistry · MLC-T-CHM-001049

Compounds of the type R2C=N-N=CR2, formed when hydrazine condenses with two molecules of an aldehyde or ketone. They differ from hydrazones R2C=N-NH2, which keep an NH2 group and are intermediates on the way to azines, and E/Z isomerism about the two C=N double bonds is possible. The ending -azine in Hantzsch-Widman heterocycle names, such as 1,3-oxazine, is an unrelated usage.
