在这封信中，我们报告了一种新颖、通用、方便、廉价的方法来还原芳香醛为相应的苯醇。以定义明确的铁配合物为催化剂前驱体，以多聚甲醛和水为氢源，可将多种芳香族醛的收率从良好降至优异。(C) 2015 Elsevier Ltd.版权所有。
In this Letter, we report a novel, general, convenient, and inexpensive method for the reduction of aromatic aldehydes to the corresponding benzylic alcohols. Various aromatic aldehydes were reduced in good to excellent yields by using well-defined iron-complex as the catalyst precursor and using paraformaldehyde and water as the hydrogen source.
