β¦ Synopsis
The reduction of Schlff bases to form secondary amines has been accomplished by catalytic hydrogenatzon' and by various reagents such as maqneslum in 3 methano12, LiAlH4 , 4 and NaBH4 . More recently, [Fe3(C0)12] was reported to effective for the reaction 5 . We found that the reduction of various carbonyl compounds was successfully accomplished via hydrosilylatlon catalysed by rhodium (1)catalyst under m~.ldcondltlons~. Now, we wish to report a novel and powerful method for the reduction of Schlff bases under neutral and mild conditions as an application of transitlon metal or metal complex catalysed hydrosilylatron.
