摘要
Lithium aminoborohydrides (LiABH3), obtained by the reaction of n-BuLi with amine-boranes, are powerful reducing agents for the reduction of alpha,beta-unsaturated aldehydes and ketones to the corresponding allylic alcohols. Thus, lithium pyrrolidinoborohydride (LiPyrrBH3) reduces cinnamaldehyde and cyclohexenone to give exclusively cinnamyl alcohol and 2-cyclohexen-1-ol respectively. This 1,2-reduction appears to be general and ester groups are tolerated. The yield of allylic alcohols from this procedure is essentially quantitative.
