COMPLEX HYDRIDES.

Abstract

Brief summaries of the following investigations are given: (1) Sterochemistry of reduction of cyclic and bicyclic ketones by alkoxy-substituted lithium aluminum hydrides; (2) Hydrogenation of nitro compounds and the quantitative determination of unsaturation in organic compounds via hydrogenation; (3) General reducing characteristics of metal hydrides, lithium aluminum hydride, lithium tri-t-butoxyaluminohydride, lithium trimethoxyaluminohydride, aluminum hydride, and disiamylborane; (4) Directive effects in the hydroboration of representative allyl derivatives; (5) Unsymmetrical olefins and coupling via organoboranes; (6) Applicability of dialkylborane reduction as a probe to determine the less hindered side of a carbonyl group; (7) A new aldehyde synthesis from phenolic esters with lithium tri-t-butoxyaluminohydride; (8) Reduction of epoxides with various metal hydrides.
