Application

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.
