Raney Ni-Al alloy in a dilute alkaline aqueous solution has been shown to be a powerful reducing agent, which is highly effective in the reduction of benzophenones to the corresponding hydrocarbon derivatives, in the absence of any organic solvents.
ter. -Raney Nickel is an efficient agent for the reduction of benzophenones. The dependence of the reaction products on the substituents is studied. -(LIU*, G.-B.; ZHAO, H.-Y.; ZHU, J.-D.; HE, H.-J.; YANG, H.-J.; THIEMANN, T.; TASHIRO, H.; TASHIRO, M.; Synth.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
