Abstract

(Pyridine)(tetrahydroborato)zinc complex, (Py)Zn(BH4)2, as a stable modification of zinc borohydride can easily reduce a variety of aromatic and aliphatic aldoximes or ketoximes to their corresponding amines in high to excellent yields in refluxing THF. ... Keywords: Zinc borohydride; Tetrahydroborate; Reduction; Oxime; Amine. ... Today's reduction with metal borohydrides is one of the most widely used procedures in organic synthesis. To achieve reductants with ...
