Key Takeaways
A Safer, More Versatile Alternative
Synhydrid® addresses the pyrophoric nature and hazardous handling associated with LiAlH4 and DIBAL-H and overcomes limitations of NaBH4 in reducing a wider range of functional groups.
Targeted Reductions
Synhydrid® provides better control over reduction reactions compared to LiAlH4.
Solve Solubility Constraints
Synhydrid® allows for selective reduction of target functional groups while minimising interference with others.
Partial Reductions
Piperhydride® facilitates selective reductions (esters to aldehydes, lactones to lactols) at lower temperatures
