The discovery of two new classes of catalysts for hydrazone and oxime formation in water at neutral pH, namely 2-aminophenols and 2-(aminomethyl)benzimidazoles, is reported. Kinetics studies in aqueous solutions at pH 7.4 revealed rate enhancements up to 7-fold greater than with classic aniline catalysis. 2-(Aminomethyl)benzimidazoles were found to be effective catalysts with otherwise challenging aryl ketone substrates.

报道了在中性pH值的水中用于腙和肟形成的两类新型催化剂的发现，即2-氨基酚和2-(氨基甲基)苯并咪唑。在pH 7.4的水溶液中的动力学研究表明，其反应速率比经典的苯胺催化提高了7倍。发现2-(氨基甲基)苯并咪唑是用于其他具有挑战性的芳基酮底物的有效催化剂。
