2、ral Uni6ersity PO, Hyderabad500 046, India Received 29 February 2000; received in revised form 16 April 2000 Abstract NaBH4does not reduce carboxylic acids, esters, amides and nitriles under ambient conditions. However, the reactivity of NaBH4can be enhanced by the addition of certain additi...
NaBH4will quickly reduce any aldehyde thatispresent to give sorbitol. Via Le Chatelier’s principle, equilibrium between the cyclic hemiacetal and the aldehyde will eventually result in all of the cyclic hemiacetal being reduced to the alcohol. ...
The functional group of which type of compound does not contain any multiple bonds? A) Carboxylic acid B) Alkene C) Aldehyde D) Aromatic E) Alcohol What are the functional groups present in Ethyl pentanoate? What reagents can...
The electron rich and hindered ester, t-amyl-3,4,5-trimethoxybenzoate, also does not reduce under these conditions (with or without LiCl). However, both methyl and isopropyl 3,4,5-trimethoxybenzoate esters were converted into 3,4,5-trimethyoxybenzyl alcohol in good yields in NaBH4/diglyme/...
What I see is that there are two reduction processes to receive the final product. While the reduction of an ketone only has one. Does this explain the difference in reactivity? So why isn’t it possible, or is it less reactive, to use NaBH4 to reduce an ester?

The water required for the reactor does not need to be carried by the ship for the entire journey. Moreover, direct use of seawater in the reaction (with or without catalyst) and direct use of seawater in the cooling may improve and simplify the system and need further investigations. In ...

When the rate of NaBH4 dissolution exceeds the rate of catalytic hydrolysis upon water addition, the BH4- generated through dissolution does not immediately undergo hydrolysis. By ensuring that the catalytic hydrolysis rate surpasses the NaBH4 dissolution rate, it becomes possible to initiate and ...
