Organic aluminum hydrides catalyze nitrile hydroboration

Abstract

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.
