Reduction of Carboxylic Esters and Acids by Polymethylhydrosiloxane catalysed by Titanium and Zirconium alkoxides
Further Information
Publication History
Publication Date:
22 March 2002 (online)
A range of carboxylic esters and acids has been converted efficiently to the corresponding alcohols with polymethylhydrosiloxane in the presence of titanium (IV) isopropoxide or zirconium (IV) ethoxide; a stereogenic centre adjacent to the ester is unaffected.
