Economical and eco-friendly aluminum hydrides were shown to be highly efficient catalysts for the solvent-free hydroboration of various nitriles using pinacolborane. The catalytic activities of three organic aluminum hydrides were compared. Mechanism investigation experiments revealed that nitrile was reduced to an imine intermediate by aluminum hydrides. The experimental process involved the reaction of 4-Fluorobenzonitrile(cas: 1194-02-1Product Details of 1194-02-1)
4-Fluorobenzonitrile(cas: 1194-02-1) is used as chemical intermediate, solvent for perfumes and pharmaceuticals, stabilizer for chlorinated solvents, HPLC analysis, catalyst and component of transition-metal complex catalysts.Product Details of 1194-02-1
