Azine
Azines are a functional class of organic compounds, formed from the condensation reaction of two equivalents of an aldehyde or ketone with one equivalent of hydrazine.[1][2] They may be further classified as aldazines or ketazines, depending on the nature of the carbonyl compound.[3][4]

[edit] Preparation
Azines may be prepared by the direct reaction of a carbonyl compound with hydrazine hydrate:[5] the reaction is exothermic.[6] The usual method of industrial production is the Pechiney-Ugine-Kuhlmann process, starting from the ketone, ammonia and hydrogen peroxide.[7][8]
[edit] Reactions and uses
Azines have been used as precursors to hydrazones[5][9] and diazo compounds.[9][10][11]
Azines are also important intermediates in the industrial production of hydrazine hydrate by the Bayer hydrazine process[12][13] or the Pechiney-Ugine-Kuhlmann process.[7][8] They have been also used as sources of hydrazine produced in situ, for example in the production of herbicide precursor 1,2,4-triazole.[14]
The coordination chemistry of azines (as ligands) has also been studied.[15][16][17] Acetone is used to derivatize hydrazine, through formation of acetone azine, for analysis by gas chromatography: the method has been used to determine trace levels of hydrazine in drinking water[18] and pharmaceuticals.[19]
[edit] Nomenclature
Azines may be named by substitutive or functional class nomenclature.[20][21] In functional class nomenclature, the functional modifier "azine" is appended to the name of the carbonyl compound: hence, "acetone azine".[20] In older nomenclature, the functional class name "ketazine" has been used with the names of the hydrocarbyl substituents: e.g., "methyl ethyl ketazine". In substitutive nomenclature, azines are named as derivatives of hydrazine: hence, "diisopropylidenehydrazine".[20] In the presence of groups of higher seniority, the prefixes "hydrazinylidene" and "hydrazinediylidene" are used.[22]
Unsymmetrical azines, that is compounds of the type X=N–N=Y with X ≠ Y, are not named as azines: in the absence of other functional groups having higher seniority, they can be named as substituted hydrazones.[23]
