Application

p-Phenylenediamine (1,4-Phenylenediamine or PPDA) can be used as a precursor for the synthesis of asymmetric bis-schiff bases [1], angular diazatricycles [2], poly (p-phenylenediamine) [3] and aromatic polyamides.[4]
It can also be used as a reactant in the synthesis of azo-schiff-base complexes of various metals.[5]
