A new zinc complex was synthesized and applied in the catalytic hydrosilylation of carbonyl compounds. Optimization of the reaction conditions showed that the presence a substoichiometric amount of methanol accelerates the process significantly. The reaction can proceed at very low catalyst load (down to 0.1 mol%) under mild reaction conditions. The reaction tolerates the presence of C=C bonds, and thus can be useful for the synthesis of allylic alcohols from α,β-unsaturated aldehydes and ketones.

This review describes the state-of-the-art of metal-catalyzed selective transfer hydrogenation of α,β-unsaturated aldehydes and ketones to the allylic alcohols, covering the literature of the last 30 years.

α,β-unsaturated aldehydes and ketones are regioselectively reduced to the corresponding allylic alcohols with NaBH4/Ba(OAc)2 system in CH3CN. This system is also efficient for the chemoselective reduction of enals in the presence of enones at room temperature.

The NaBH4/C (charcoal) system reduces a variety of carbonyl compounds such as aldehydes, ketones, acyloins and α-diketones to their corresponding alcohols in high to excellent yields. Reduction reactions were carried out in wet THF at r. t. In addition, regioselective 1,2-reduction of α,β - unsaturated aldehydes and ketones was achieved perfectly with this reducing system. By decreasing the amount of aprotic solvent, all reductions took place fast and efficiently under solid-gel condition
