Hydride Reduction by a Sodium Hydride–Iodide Composite
TL;DR: A series of reduction reactions of nitriles, amides, and imines as enabled by NaH in the presence of LiI or NaI is presented, endows NaH with unprecedented and unique hydride‐donor chemical reactivity.
Journal ArticleDOI
Amide-Directed C-H Sodiation by a Sodium Hydride/Iodide Composite
TL;DR: A new protocol for amide-directed ortho and lateral C-H sodiation is enabled by sodium hydride in the presence of either sodium iodide or lithium iodide, and the transient organosodium intermediates could be transformed into functionalized aromatic compounds.

TL;DR: It is reported that mixing NaH with NaI or LiI in tetrahydrofuran (THF) as a solvent provides a new inorganic composite, which consists of NaI interspersed with activated NaH, as revealed by powder X-ray diffraction, and both solid-state NMR andX-ray photoelectron spectroscopies.
