Hello,

On Scheme 6 ( http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:IDAStereo2.png), the structures of the major and minor products seem to be identical. Also, why does Scheme 6 go before Scheme 5?

Scheme 1:

"Simple alkyl or aryl amines are often

generated in situ by combining an amine hydrochloride with an aldehyde"

Surely this is impossible without a base, the hydrochloride acts itself as a "protecting group" for the amine, it is non-nucleophilic and cannot attack the aldehyde bearing a positive charge at the nitrogen.

- under the assistence or help of a base should be added! — Preceding unsigned comment added by 131.188.188.36 ( talk) 07:07, 4 September 2015 (UTC) reply
