Synthesis and structural studies of bis[(N-2-bromo-3-phenyl-allylidene] thiosemicarbazone and bis[4-(N-2-bromo-3-phenyl-allylidene)-phenyl] ether: as Schiff bases

Preparation of two Schiff bases via efficient condensation of ? –bromocinnamaldehyde and thiosemicarbazide or bis(4-aminophenyl) ether is described in high yield at 100 0C, methanol solvent and neutral PH. The elemental analyses, FT-IR, 1H NMR and 13C NMR spectroscopy are agreed with two new Schiff bases structures.
