SALICYLDEHYDE AZINE
Salicylaldehyde azine is used in the preparation of 2-oxo-2H-1-benzopyran-3-carboxylic acid 2-(2-oxo-2H-1-benzopyran-3-carbonyl)hydrazide by reacting with propadienedione . It has anthelmintic activity.
Application
Salicylaldehyde is converted to chelating ligands by condensation with amines. With ethylenediamine, it condenses to give the ligand salen. Hydroxylamine gives salicylaldoxime. Condensation with diethyl malonate gives 3-carbethoxycoumarin (a derivative of coumarin) by an aldol condensation.
