Abstract
Schiff bases prepared from aromatic aldehydes and alicyclic amines undergo transimination and reduction with 3,5-dicarboethoxy-2,6-dimethyl-1,4-dihydropyridine, as thenadh model in the presence of aromatic amines in acetic acid. This sequence of steps is analogous to a similar chemical mechanism proposed for glutamate dehydrogenase. In the absence of thenadh model, only the transimination process is observed.
