Reduces acid chlorides to aldehydes in presence of
Pd(0). Effects free-radical reductive addition of alkyl
halides to olefins. Reduces benzylic chlorides 70x faster
than silyl hydrides.
Uses
Tri-n-butylgermanium hydride is used in the reduction of benzylic chlorides. It is also used as pharmaceutical intermediate.
Uses
Efficient reducing agent for benzylic chlorides.1
General Description
Tributylgermanium hydride is a radical generating reagent. Reductive alkylation of active olefins with alkyl halides with tributylgermanium hydride was investigated in detail.
