Hafnium hydride was generated by the transmetalation between Bu 3SnH and HfCl4 using either THF or EtCN as the solvent. This process effectively reduced aldehydes, aldimines, ketones, and esters. In the hafnium hydride reduction of α-alkoxyketones, the diastereoselectivity was dependent on whether THF or EtCN was used as the solvent. Georg Thieme Verlag Stuttgart.
