Nice but so what?

This article is about benzyl amine. I removed this essay on the Schotten-Baumann reaction:

These conditions are often called Schotten-Baumann reaction conditions and are applicable more generally.{{cite book|chapter-url = https://books.google.com/books?id=AfSFwiNNekQC&q=Schotten%E2%80%93Baumann+reaction+conditions&pg=PA171|pages = 121–168|chapter = 5.

Also this commentary on some heterocycles "Isoquinolines are a class of compounds (benzopyridines) which are used in medical contexts (such as the anesthetic dimethisoquin, the antihypertensive debrisoquine, and the vasodilator papaverine) and in other areas (such as disinfectant N-laurylisoquinolinium bromide). Isoquinoline itself is efficiently prepared using the Pomeranz–Fritsch reaction, but can also be prepared from benzylamine and glyoxal acetal by an analogous approach known as the Schlittler-Müller modification to the Pomeranz–Fritsch reaction. This modification can also be used for preparing substituted isoquinolines.{{cite book|last = Li|first = J.
