Abstract

Acetaldehyde and its homologues are reduced by an acid-stable NADH model compound, 9,10-dihydro-10-methylacridine, in the presence of Lewis acids such as tin tetrachloride, titanium tetrachloride, and trimethylsilyl perchlorate in dichloromethane or chloroform at 193 K or 218 K to yield 10-methylaeridinium ion and the corresponding alcohols.
