Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

The way in which each of the given compounds can be prepared from benzaldehyde by reductive amination is to be explained.

Concept Introduction:

Aldehyde compounds can be reduced to amines by using catalytic hydrogenation or iron, palladium or tin metal in presence of acid.

The conversion of aldehydes and ketones into amines is known as reductive amination.

The first step is the formation of imines using aldehydes or ketones and amines.

The second step involves the reduction of imine to form amines.

The best reagent for this reaction is sodiumborohydride.
