This chapter will be a guide that contains a summary of general information that should be known about these compounds, which have a wide range of use in our daily life. In this chapter, the following topics are planned to be explained. (1) Schiff bases, physical and chemical properties, (2) the formation mechanism of Schiff bases, (3) Schiff base reactions, (4) metal complexes of Schiff base, (5) classification of Schiff bases, (6) bio...
