โฆ Synopsis
Numbers of metal hydrides and organometallic hydrides are able to reduce carbonyl compounds. Every hydrides has its own characteristic feature. However, no report is given in the literature concerning the r-activities of metal hydrides of main group V other than the addition of stibine with CsC and N=N bonds 2,3 . We found that in the absence of Lewis acids, diphenylstibine alone did not react with carbonyl compounds, but in the presence of Lewis acid, it did react at mild conditions to afford, after hydrolysis, alcohols in excellent yields.
