According to Wieland and Scheuing (1), the Schiff-aldehyde reaction proceeds in two steps. In the first step, the fuchsin-sulfurous acid reagent links with 1 mole of aldehyde to form a monoaldehydic compound, and in the second step, the compound again links with SO2 and another mole of aldehyde to form a dialdehydic one. The present author has unexpectedly found that the colored product produced by the Schiff-formaldehyde reaction consists of several components. The results obtained will be reported below.
