Hyperforin is not reduced by sodium borohydride. Reduction with hydride-transfer reagents such as lithium aluminium hydride (LAH), RED-AL, and DIBAL-H, gave varied products in good yields. Its two dicarbonyl systems are amenable to reduction or deoxygenation upon treatment with alane reducing agents and pave the way to new and interesting modifications of the natural product.301... 

Similarly, photocyclization of the /i-methoxy-substituted enamide 229, followed by two-step hydride reduction with LAH and sodium borohydride, furnished the depyrrole analog of agroclavine (55) (Scheme 87). 

More highly functionalized cyclopentenones can be accessed by oiganolithium addition to the carbonyl group instead of hydride reduction with Sodium Bis(2-methoxyethoxy)aluminum Hydride (Red-Al). ... 

Sodium hydride reduction of quinoline in HMPA leads to a 2 3 mixture of 1,2-dihydroquinoline (82) and 1,4-dihydroquinoline (83) isolated as the A-methoxycarbonyl derivatives. In situ produced copper hydride reagents react with pyridinium species with high regioselectivity generating 1,4-dihydropyridine... 

In addition, this synthetic scheme offers a mild reaction route for the degradation of a-hydroxy acids to the corresponding aldehydes containing one less carbon atom or for their conversion to aldehydes with the same number of carbon atoms. For example, reaction of 1,4-diphenylthio-semicarbazide with a-acetoxyacyl chlorides yields 5-(a-hydroxyalkyl)-1,2,4-triazolium salts, which, upon sodium hydride reduction and acid treatment, give benzaldehyde along with 138 (R = H) (Scheme 58) (75TL1889). Moreover, the 5-(a-hydroxyalkyl)-l,2,4-triazolium salts can be easily converted to the 5-alkyl compounds (Scheme 58) and borohydride reduction of the latter followed by acid hydrolysis provides a method for the transformation of a-hydroxy acids to aldehydes with the... 

The route used in the conversion 100 ent-98 is shown in Scheme 10 and begins with the conversion of the former compound into the acetal 101 under standard conditions. Dihydroxylation of the non-chlorinated double-bond within the latter compound using the Upjohn conditions [50] provided the diol 102 (66%) in a completely diastereoselective fashion and this was protected as the corresponding di-MOM ether 103 (88%) using MOM chloride in the presence of sodium hydride. Reductive cleavage of the acetal unit within compound 103 was readily effected in a regioselective manner with DIBAl-H and the ensuing alcohol... 

The condensation of aldehydes and ketones with succinic esters in the presence of sodium ethoxide is known as the Stobbe condensation. The reaction with sodium ethoxide is comparatively slow and a httlo reduction of the ketonic compound to the carbinol usually occurs a shorter reaction time and a better yield is generally obtained with the more powerful condensing agent potassium ieri.-butoxide or with sodium hydride. Thus benzophenone condenses with diethyl succinate in the presence of potassium [Pg.919]

Reduction with sodium in alcohol was unsuccessful (54). The introduction of lithium aluminium hydride has provided an elegant method for the reduction of thiazole esters to hydroxythiazoles for example, ethyl 2-methyl-4-thiazolecarboxylate (11 with lithium aluminium hydride in diethyl ether gives 2-methyl-4-(hydroxymethyl)thiazole (12) in 66 to 69% yield (Scheme 7) (53),... 

Sodium borohydride and lithium aluminum hydride react with carbonyl compounds in much the same way that Grignard reagents do except that they function as hydride donors rather than as carbanion sources Figure 15 2 outlines the general mechanism for the sodium borohydride reduction of an aldehyde or ketone (R2C=0) Two points are especially important about this process... 

Reduction to alcohols (Section 15 2) Aide hydes are reduced to primary alcohols and ketones are reduced to secondary alcohols by a variety of reducing agents Catalytic hydrogenation over a metal catalyst and reduction with sodium borohydride or lithium aluminum hydride are general methods... 

The carbonyl group of carbohydrates can be reduced to an alcohol function Typi cal procedures include catalytic hydrogenation and sodium borohydnde reduction Lithium aluminum hydride is not suitable because it is not compatible with the solvents (water alcohols) that are required to dissolve carbohydrates The products of carbohydrate reduc tion are called alditols Because these alditols lack a carbonyl group they are of course incapable of forming cyclic hemiacetals and exist exclusively m noncyclic forms... 

A schematic illustration of a typical inlet apparatus for separating volatile hydrides from the analyte solution, in which they are generated upon reduction with sodium tetrahydroborate. When the mixed analyte solution containing volatile hydrides enters the main part of the gas/liquid separator, the volatiles are released and mix with argon sweep and makeup gas, with which they are transported to the center of the plasma. The unwanted analyte solution drains from the end of the gas/liquid separator. The actual construction details of these gas/liquid separators can vary considerably, but all serve the same purpose. In some of them, there can be an intermediate stage for removal of air and hydrogen from the hydrides before the latter are sent to the plasma. 

Isoquinoline can be reduced quantitatively over platinum in acidic media to a mixture of i j -decahydroisoquinoline [2744-08-3] and /n j -decahydroisoquinoline [2744-09-4] (32). Hydrogenation with platinum oxide in strong acid, but under mild conditions, selectively reduces the benzene ring and leads to a 90% yield of 5,6,7,8-tetrahydroisoquinoline [36556-06-6] (32,33). Sodium hydride, in dipolar aprotic solvents like hexamethylphosphoric triamide, reduces isoquinoline in quantitative yield to the sodium adduct [81045-34-3] (25) (152). The adduct reacts with acid chlorides or anhydrides to give N-acyl derivatives which are converted to 4-substituted 1,2-dihydroisoquinolines. Sodium borohydride and carboxylic acids combine to provide a one-step reduction—alkylation (35). Sodium cyanoborohydride reduces isoquinoline under similar conditions without N-alkylation to give... 

An aiyl methane- or toluenesulfonate ester is stable to reduction with lithium aluminum hydride, to the acidic conditions used for nitration of an aromatic ring (HNO3/HOAC), and to the high temperatures (200-250°) of an Ullman reaction. Aiyl sulfonate esters, formed by reaction of a phenol with a sulfonyl chloride in pyridine or aqueous sodium hydroxide, are cleaved by warming in aqueous sodium hydroxide. ...
