Reduction of N , N -dimethylcarboxamides to aldehydes by sodium hydride-iodide composite by Chan, Guo Hao, Ong, Derek Yiren, Yen, Zhihao, Chiba, Shunsuke

“…A new and concise protocol for selective reduction of N,N‐dimethylamides into aldehydes was established using sodium hydride (NaH) in the presence of sodium iodide (NaI) under mild reaction conditions. The present protocol with the NaH‐NaI composite allows for reduction of not only aromatic and heteroaromatic but also aliphatic N,N‐dimethylamides with wide substituent compatibility. …”
