Indium as a reducing agent. Chemoselective reduction of α-halocarbonyl compounds and benzyl halides by indium metal in water under sonication

Abstract

Indium metal in water reduces α-halocarbonyl compounds and benzyl iodides to the corresponding dehalogenated products in excellent yields under sonication although simple alkyl and aryl iodides remained inert under these conditions.
