A series of Schiff base esters was synthesized from the reaction between 4-formyl-3-hydroxyphenyl octadecanoate and 3-substituted-anilines. The molecular structures were elucidated using spectroscopic techniques such as FT-IR and NMR. A conformational study associated with the presence of intramolec...
