Uses
Sodium Triacetoxyborohydride(STAB) is a hydride reagent used in stereoselective reductive amination. It is able to replace toxic sodium cyanoborohydride under most conditions. It is selective in reducing aldehydes to alcohols in the presence of ketones. STAB is also stable in anhydrous acids, which enables reductive amination of aldehydes and ketones. It used in reductive amination of ketones and aldehydes and reductive amination/lactamization of carbonyl compounds with amines.
Reagent for the reductive amination of aryl aldehydes.The advantage of STAB compared to sodium cyanoborohydride is evident. STAB, being non-toxic, is easier to handle and forms no toxic by-products, making the treatment of process waste after the reaction simple and less costly.
Selective reducing agent in organic synthesis.
