Controlled reduction of carboxamides to alcohols or amines by zinc hydrides

New protocols for controlled reduction of carboxamides to either alcohols or amines were established using a combination of sodium hydride (NaH) and zinc halides (ZnX2 ). Use of a different halide on ZnX2 dictates the selectivity, wherein the NaH-ZnI2 system delivers alcohols and NaH-ZnCl2 gives ami...
