Abstract
The reactions of methyl and ethyl esters of valine with m-bromobenzaldehyde and p-chlorobenzaldehyde in absolute methanol in the presence of magnesium sulfate yielded the corresponding azomethines (CH3)2CHCH(COOR1)N=CHR2 (R1 = CH3, C2H5; R2 = 3-BrC6H4, 4-ClC6H4); their reduction with sodium borohydride gave N-benzyl derivatives of valine esters, (CH3)2CHCH(COOR1)NHCH2R2.
