Sodium triethylborohydride - Introduction
Sodium triethylborohydride is an organic compound with the chemical formula NaBEt3H. It is a colorless solid, soluble in anhydrous ethanol and sodium hydroxide solution at room temperature.
Sodium triethylborohydride is mainly used for reduction reaction in organic synthesis. It is a strong reducing agent that can reduce functional groups such as ketones, aldehydes, and acid chlorides to the corresponding alcohols or amines. It is widely used in the synthesis of organic compounds, pharmaceuticals and pesticides. At the same time, it can also be used as a reducing agent for the catalyst.
The preparation method of sodium triethylborohydride is generally obtained by reacting triethylboron sodium chloride with hydrogen. Boron and sodium chloride is first prepared by the reaction of sodium chloride with triethylborol, and then reduced by hydrogen and tetrahydrofuran solution system to obtain Sodium triethylborohydride.
Regarding safety information, Sodium triethylborohydride is a highly reducing compound that needs to be stored and handled under an inert atmosphere. When exposed to air, it may react violently with water vapor in the air to produce combustible gas. In addition, it is incompatible with acids, oxidants and moisture. When in use, wear appropriate personal protective equipment and follow appropriate operating procedures and safety precautions.
