ChemInform Abstract: Facile Reduction of Saturated and Unsaturated Carboxylic Acids and Their Salts to Aldehydes by Thexylbromoborane‐Dimethyl Sulfide.
Abstract:The tert‐hexylbromoborane dimethylsulfide complex (III), generated from bromoborane.SMe2 (I) and 2,3‐dimethyl‐2‐butene (II), is employed in the reduction of the carboxylic acids and their corresponding lithium and sodium salts (IV), producing the aldehydes (V).
