ChemInform Abstract: REACTIONS OF SODIUM BOROHYDRIDE IN ACIDIC MEDIA, IV. REDUCTION OF DIARYLMETHANOLS AND TRIARYLMETHANOLS IN TRIFLUOROACETIC ACID

Abstract: Während Diaryl‐ und Triarylmethanole (I) durch Natriumborhydrid in Trifluoroessigsäure in sehr guten Ausbeuten zu den entsprechenden Methanen (II) reduziert werden, ergeben alkylsubstituierte Alkohole (III), (VI) und (IX) die entsprechenden Kohlenwasserstoffe nur in geringeren Ausbeuten.

“…Compound 4d was prepared by the reaction of 4- n -hexylbenzoyl chloride with benzene and AlCl 3 to provide 28 (4- n -hexylphenyl)(phenyl)methanone. Trimethylsilyl cyanide was then employed in the preparation of the cyanohydrin 29 followed by reduction of the hydroxy group with NaBH 4 in TFA 25 to provide 30 (2-(4- n -hexylphenyl)-2-phenylacetonitrile). Reduction of the nitrile was then carried out using Raney Nickel under a hydrogen atmosphere to provide 4d in moderate yield.…”

“…15 Indeed, this reaction is also presumed to proceed via a carbocation intermediate. 16 A similar diastereoselectivity was obtained when (6aR,12R)-13/ (6aR,12S)-13 15 (40:60) was reduced with triethylsilane in TFA. The epimeric ratio obtained in these reactions seems to be a result of steric factors directing the nucleophilic attack (vide supra), the presumed intermediate cation being more accessible from the re-face of C12.…”

“…Carbonyl can also be mildly reduced using triethylsilane and acid catalyst such as boron trifluoride etherate (BF 3 ·Et 2 O). Diarylketone can be easily converted into diarylmethane by Gribble reduction [ 110 ]. For anthracene-9,10-diones such as emodin, the reduction of carbonyls can be controlled to mono-reduction by SnCl 2 in mixed acid, and the carbonyl close to hydroxyl can be protected probably due to the intramolecular hydrogen bond [ 106 ].…”
