| Abstract | The study thoroughly examines the Gibbs free energy surfaces of a new mechanism for reduction of ketones/aldehydes by tris(pentafluorophenyl)borane (1) and H2. Key elements of the proposed mechanism are the proton and the hydride transfer steps similar to Stephan's catalytic reduction of imines by 1. The proton is transferred to the ketone/aldehyde in the process of H2 cleavage by the carbonyl–borane couple and the hydride is transferred in a nucleophilic attack on the carbonyl carbon by the hydridoborate in the ionic pair, [HOCRR’]+[HB(C6F5)3]−. The in solvent Gibbs free energy barriers of H2 splitting by adducts of B(C6F5)3 with acetone, acetophenone and benzaldehyde are predicted to be in the range of 24.5 ± 2.5 kcal mol−1, which corresponds to potential energy barriers in the range of 17.0 ± 2.0 kcal mol−1. Significantly lower barrier of H2activation is predicted in cases of bulky ketones such as 2,2,4,4-tetramethylpentan-3-one. With respect to the hydridoborate intermediate, the nucleophilic attack on the activated carbon is predicted to have a relatively low barrier for the sterically unhindered substrates, while this barrier is considerably higher for the sterically encumbered substrates. Since the formation of the hydridoborate intermediates is found to be endothermic, the transition state of the nucleophilic attack is the highest point of the computed energy profile for all tested substrates. Overall, according to in solvent density function calculations the proposed reduction of “compact” ketones/aldehydes by 1 and H2 is allowed both thermodynamically and kinetically at elevated temperature, but it is expected to be slower and more substrate specific than the corresponding reduction of imines. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.
