Sodium triacetoxyborohydride

Description:
Sodium triacetoxyborohydride, with the CAS number 56553-60-7, is a chemical compound that serves as a reducing agent in organic synthesis. It is characterized by its ability to selectively reduce carbonyl compounds, such as aldehydes and ketones, to their corresponding alcohols. The compound is typically a white to off-white solid and is soluble in polar organic solvents, which enhances its utility in various chemical reactions. Sodium triacetoxyborohydride is known for its mild reactivity, making it a valuable reagent in synthetic organic chemistry, particularly in the preparation of alcohols from carbonyl precursors without over-reduction. Its stability under ambient conditions and ease of handling further contribute to its appeal in laboratory settings. Additionally, the presence of acetoxy groups in its structure allows for the release of acetic acid during the reduction process, which can be advantageous in certain synthetic pathways. Overall, sodium triacetoxyborohydride is a versatile and effective reagent for chemists seeking to perform selective reductions.
