NaBH4-Mediated Complete Reduction of the α,β-Unsaturated Ketone Units of Chalcones in the Synthesis of FlavansIn this chapter, the NaBH 4 -mediated reduction of both the carbon-carbon double bond and the carbonyl group of chalcones and subsequent acid mediated cyclisation of the resulting ...
I have not personally run this experiment. However, reduction of this particular substrate with NaBH4 is reported in the paper that first reported the use of NaBH4 to reduce ketones. Here is the reference: J. Am. Chem. Soc. 71, 122 (1949). Therein, they report that the initial reduction...
Ketones undergo oxidation with strong oxidizing agents like alkaline potassium permanganate solution. There is a break in the carbon chain on oxidation. A mixture of carboxylic acids is the product. The carboxylic acids have fewer carbon atoms than the original ketone. What is the difference between...
This method was also used for the synthesis of graphene–Au nanostructure. The researchers used direct chemical reduction of Au precursor (HAuCl4) in the presence of GO or rGO sheets with reducing agents such as amines, NaBH4, and ascorbic acid. Elsewhere, a snowflake-shaped Au nanostructure ...

In process I, however, high enantioselectivity is unlikely because of the structural characteristics of the unit A precursor, methyl 3-(2-bromophenyl)-3-oxopropanoate. The β-keto ester substrate has two hetero atoms, Br and O of COOCH3 at the β and β′ positions of the ketone carbonyl...
Acyclic Carbonyl Groups Cram's Rule Empirical Model Large group L eclipsed with R and not the carbonyl, Nu– approach from side of small (S) group. Stereoselectivity observed usually modest. Most populated (most stable) conformation of acyclic ketone would be the eclipsed carbonyl conformation. ...

(Cym)Ru(dpenTs) also showed excellent stereoselectivity (ee 499% and dr 495/5) in the tandem asymmetric reduction of 2-(aroylmethyl)quinolines involving a transfer hydrogenation of an aromatic ketone and the hydrogenation of the quinoline.116 Ir/L8 and a number of Ir complexes with ...
Reactions of aldehydes and ketones: oxidation reduction nucleophilic addition 1) Aldehydes are easily oxidized, ketones are not. 2) Aldehydes are more reactive in nucleophilic additions than ketones. alkane alcohol aldehyde ketone carboxylic acid oxidation reduction reduction addition product nucleophilic ad...
