Imenes most readily add amines and other nucleophilic reagents, such as water, alcohols, mercaptans, hydrogen sulphide, hydrocyanic acid. Bis‐methylsulphonyl‐N‐methylimene, which was studied more extensively, proved to possess not only electrophilic but also nucleophilic properties. Thus it adds HCl and can be applied in the Friedel‐Crafts reaction.
