Aryl-substituted olefins react with t-butyl nitrite and sodium borohydride in the presence of iron(ii)phthalocyanine to give oximes in moderate to high yields.

A convenient one-pot synthesis of 1,2-amino alcohols from -amino acids with retention of optical purity by use of 1,1’-carbonyldiimidazole and sodium borohydride is described.

[formula: see text] 1,3-Dithianes and -dithiepines are prepared via an experimentally simple and efficient direct transformation of 1,n-alkyl dihalides utilizing carbon disulfide and sodium borohydride.

A new Kinetic Spectrophotometic method for the Determination of trace amount Sulfacetamide Drug into real samples has been described based with silver nanoparticles starch-capped sensor, by sodium borohydride. The reaction is followed spectrophotometrically by measuring the decrease in the absorbance at 347.5 nm. 1.0×10-2 molL-1 silver nanoparticles starch-capped sensor, 2.0×10-3 mol L-1 sodium...

Recently we reported on the rapid inactivation of tetracycline by use of cupric-morpholine complex (Kaplan, Lannon, and Buckwalter, J. Pharm. Sci., 64, 163, 1965). This degradation procedure is used as part of an assay technique for kanamycin in the presence of tetracycline. We have since found that sodium borohydride (Metal Hydrides Inc., Beverly, Mass.) can substitute for cupric-morpholine co...

The structures of mercaptan and sodium borohydride reaction products of neocarzinostatin chromophore A (NCS Chrom A) are compared. Implications on the mechanism of activation of NCS are discussed.

Cozymase (diphosphopyridine nucleotide, DPN) has been assayed by a variety of biochemical and chemical methods (1). Among the simplest procedures has been the determination of the light absorption of reduced DPN at 340 rnp after reduction by sodium hydrosulfite. Since special precautions are required to remove completely the excess reducing agent which absorbs in this region, it appeared advant...

This review describes recent research in the development of tank systems based on complex metal hydrides for thermolysis and hydrolysis. Commercial applications using complex metal hydrides are limited, especially for thermolysis-based systems where so far only demonstration projects have been performed. Hydrolysis-based systems find their way in space, naval, military and defense applications ...
