Usage

General Description

Lithium diisobutyl-tert-butoxyaluminum hydride is a powerful reducing agent commonly used in organic synthesis. It is typically supplied as a 0.25 M solution in tetrahydrofuran (THF) and hexanes, making it easier to handle and use in reactions. The compound is known for its selective and mild reduction of various functional groups, such as esters, ketones, and amides, making it a versatile reagent in the field of organic chemistry. However, it must be handled with caution due to its pyrophoric nature and reactivity with water and air.
