Super-Hydride®solution (Lithium triethylborohydride or LiTEBH) is widely used as a powerful and selective reducing agent that shows super hydride activity in organic synthesis.LiTEBH can be used as a reagent:To reduce alkyl halides to alkanes via dehydrogenation reactions.For the selective reduction of epoxides to Markovnikov alcohols.To reduce tosylates or mesylates primary alcohols to hydrocarbons.For reductive cyclization reactions for the preparation of useful intermediates.In the synthesis of hepta(manno-3-deoxy-6-O-t-butyldimethylsilyl)-β-cyclodextrin by reduction of hepta(manno-2,3-anhydro-6-O-t-butyldimethylsilyl)-β-cyclodextrin.For hydrodefluorination of C-F bonds using Ni catalyst.To prepare alkynyl alcohols from cleavage of cyclic keto-vinyl triflates.In the stereoselective reduction of bicyclic imides, isoquinolines, and pyridines.To prepare tungsten and molybdenum hydride complexes.
Trialkylborane - Organic lithium salt - Organic alkali metal salt - Organic metalloid salt - Hydrocarbon derivative - Organic salt - Organic cation - Aliphatic acyclic compound
Description
This compound belongs to the class of organic compounds known as trialkylboranes. These are organoboron compounds where the boron atom is substituted by only three alkyl groups.
