An efficient and transition metal free protocol for the transfer hydrogenation of ketones as a continuous flow process

Abstract

We report the efficient reduction of a selection of ketones to the corresponding secondary alcohols using only catalytic amounts of LiOtBu in iPrOH facilitated by using a continuous flow reactor.
