“…116 A homogeneous reduction of oct-1-ene was reported using KH 2 PO 2 in an alkaline solution of aqueous methanol. 117 The reduction into octane 71 catalyzed by RuCl 2 (PPh 3 ) 3 reached 50% yield after 1 h and 85% yield after 4 h (Scheme 23). In comparison, the reaction in the presence of the Wilkinson catalyst (RhCl(PPh 3 ) 3 ) reached only 21% yield after 1 h and 45% of isomerization in 2-octene was observed.…”

The development of new tools for the reduction of organic functions to reach high chemo- and stereo-selectivity is an important research domain. Although, aluminum and boron hydrides are commonly used, they suffer from environmentally and safety issues. In particular, at industrial scale, the search for more specific and efficient reagents with a lower ecological impact remains one of the main objectives of organic chemists. This review captures highlights from literature concerning phosphonic and phosphinic acid derivatives as reducing agents and evaluates their potential as alternatives, in particular to boron and aluminum hydrides.
