Poly(diallyldimethylammonium chloride) as an Efficient Phase Transfer Catalyst in Solvent-Free Reduction of Carbonyl Compounds with NaBH4
Abstract
Poly(diallyldimethylammonium chloride) resin was used as an efficient polymeric phase transfer catalyst, which catalyzed the chemoselective reduction of aldehydes and ketones by NaBH4 to give the corresponding alcohols in high yields under solvent-free conditions.
