Description

• General description: Super-Hydride® solution (Lithium triethylborohydride or LiTEBH) is widely used as a powerful and selective reducing agent that shows super hydride activity in organic synthesis.[1][2]
• Application: LiTEBH can be used as a reagent: To reduce alkyl halides to alkanes via dehydrogenation reactions.[1][3]For the selective reduction of epoxides to Markovnikov alcohols.[4] To reduce tosylates or mesylates primary alcohols to hydrocarbons.[1]For reductive cyclization reactions for the preparation of useful intermediates.[5]In the synthesis of hepta(manno-3-deoxy-6-O-t-butyldimethylsilyl)-β-cyclodextrin by reduction of hepta(manno-2,3-anhydro-6-O-t-butyldimethylsilyl)-β-cyclodextrin.[6]For hydrodefluorination of C-F bonds using Ni catalyst.[1]To prepare alkynyl alcohols from cleavage of cyclic keto-vinyl triflates.[7]In the stereoselective reduction of bicyclic imides,[8] isoquinolines, and pyridines.[9]To prepare tungsten and molybdenum hydride complexes.[10]
