The imines were found to exist as only a single E-isomer at ambient temperature. Interestingly, 1H- and 13C-NMR chemical shifts of the (CH=N) amino group are affected by the type of substituent group (X) on the aryl ring. Furthermore UV and IR Spectra of some of the title compounds are also reported. %K Schiff¡¯s Bases %K 1H %K 13C-NMR %K Pyridine-2-yl-Benzylidene %K E-Z-Isomers %K Azomethane Group %U http://www.scirp.org/journal/PaperInformation.aspx?PaperID=46240
