| Application: | Diisobutylaluminum hydride solution (1M in THF) is a powerful reducing agent. It can be used in the following reactions: • Synthesis of trans-alkene isosteres of protected dipeptides. • To generate bis(1,5-cyclooctadiene)ni • Reduction of the arylpropiolate esters to give the corresponding propargyl alcohol. |
| Application: | Used in Pd-catalyzed reductive debromination of secondary alkyl bromides. O-Debenzylation and ring opening of perbenzylated furanosides. Convenient in situ generation of HZrCp2Cl from ZrCp2Cl2 and DIBAL-H. |
