Abstract
NaBH 4 in the presence of sodium bisulfate (NaHSO 4 .H 2 O), a weakly acidic reagent, efficiently reduces a variety of carbonyl compounds such as aldehydes, ketones, a, β-unsaturated aldehydes and ketones, α-diketones and acyloins to their corresponding alcohols in acetonitrile under heterogeneous condition. Reduction reactions were accomplished at room temperature or under reflux condition.
