Key Takeaways

A Safer, More Versatile Alternative

Synhydrid® addresses the pyrophoric nature and hazardous handling associated with LiAlH4 and DIBAL-H and overcomes limitations of NaBH4 in reducing a wider range of functional groups.

Targeted Reductions

Synhydrid® provides better control over reduction reactions compared to LiAlH4.

Solve Solubility Constraints

Synhydrid® allows for selective reduction of target functional groups while minimising interference with others.

Partial Reductions

Piperhydride® facilitates selective reductions (esters to aldehydes, lactones to lactols) at lower temperatures
