Abstract

Metal hydride reductions of planar cyclic anhydrides such as methylmaleic or 3-substituted phthalic anhydrides occur preferentially at the sterically more hindered carbonyl function. This regioselectivity cannot be rationalized in terms of" the most favourable pathway for non- perpendicular attack by a nucleophile" since both carbonyl groups present are equally accessible to non-perpendicular approach. A study which takes into account the alkaline ...
