✦ Synopsis

Recently, the reduction of alkenes and alkynes by the reagent, LiAlH4-transition metal halide has been reported. 132 Although one might assume that this reaction proceeds via hydrometallation, deuterolysis shows that only titanium compounds of the first row transition metals are effective in the formation of the hydrometallation intermediate, although other first row transition metal compounds (e.g. NiCl 5
