Acid Hydrazide: A Potential Reagent for the Synthesis of Semicarbazones

Complex semicarbazone derivatives were successfully synthesized from substituted semicarbazides in acidic ethanol upon heating in the presence of aldehyde. The reaction is functional group tolerant and chemoselective because no terminal hydrazine moiety is present in the substituted semicarbazides....
