Fast and Efficient Reductive Amination of Aldehydes by NaBH4/B(OH)3 and NaBH4/Al(OH)3

Abstract Reductive amination a variety of aldehydes and anilines to their corresponding secondary amines were carried out with NaBH 4 /B(OH) 3 and NaBH 4 /Al(OH) 3 as new reducing systems in CH 3 CN at room temperature in high to excellent yields of products (90‐96%).
