Abstract
Dissolution of sulfur in the system hydrazine hydrate-alkali leads to strong activation of hydrazine, so that the latter readily reacts at room temperature with aldehydes of the aromatic and thiophene series to give the corresponding aldehyde azines in high yield. The mechanism of activating effect of sulfur is discussed.
