Abstract

Abstract: New conditions were used for the efficient reduction of various nitroalkenes and two prochiral ketones by using NADH mimics. The present procedure is very useful since it does not involve magnesium perchlorate which is replaced by magnesium bromide in THF. High conversions were observed. The new conditions were checked in asymmetric reductions.
