Abstract: cf. C.A. 52, 10768d. In solns. contg. 0.5M NH₃ and 0.5M NH₄Cl, at pH 9.3, showing half-wave potentials of carbonyl forms, it was possible to det. l-phenylacetylcarbinol (I), mixts. of I and methylbenzoylcarbinol (II), and mixts. of I and BzH. In solns. contg. 0.025M MeNH₂ and 0.11M MeNH₃Cl, at pH 10, it was possible to det. BzH, converted to Schiff's base, in the presence of II, because, under these conditions, there was practically no condensation with MeNH₂.
