The reduction of organic compounds by metal-ammonia solutions
Arthur J Birch
Quarterly Reviews, Chemical Society 4 (1), 69-93, 1950
THE aims of this Review are to present a, picture of the process of reduction, especially as observed in metal-ammonia solutions, and to survey some of the advantages and limitations of these reagents in synthesis and degradation. Several excellent reviews 1 exist of various aspects of metal-ammonia solutions, but they are chiefly concerned with reactions rather than with mechanisms. The theory of the process of reduction itself is very well set out by L. Michaelis and MP Schubert. 2 In the present Review no attempt is made to present a …
