Abstract

Oxidation of a primary aliphatic amine, RCH· NH, by aqueous persulphate under alkaline conditions and in the presence of a catalytic amount of silver nitrate, gave the aldimine, RCH: N· CHR, which was subsequently hydrolysed to the aldehyde, RCHO, and the original amine, or was hydrogenated to the corresponding second
