Abstract

88-90 oil lectivity associated with the preparation of the precursor azides. Thus, the reduction represents a pivotal step in a stereoselective sequence for the preparation of amines. Several methods and reagents are available for this transformation that is often carried out by catalytic hydr~ genation~,~ or by treatment with lithium aluminum h~ dride.~ Other known procedures include H2S/pyridine/H20, 4 transfer hydrogenation: Ph3P, GH,/ ...
