AI Article Synopsis

  • Indium hydride, created from the reaction of NaBH4 and InCl3, is a viable alternative to the commonly used Bu3SnH.
  • InCl3 shows impressive catalytic activity in processes like dehalogenation of alkyl and aryl halides.
  • It also performs well in intramolecular cyclization and intermolecular coupling reactions, highlighting its versatility.

Article Abstract

The indium hydride generated from NaBH4 and InCl3, is a promising candidate of alternative to Bu3SnH. In particular, the catalytic performance of InCl3 in the dehalogenation of alkyl and aryl halides, intramolecular cyclization and intermolecular coupling reaction are noteworthy.
