The approximate rates and stoichiometry of the reaction of excess sodium tris(diethylamino)aluminum hydride (ST-DEA) with selected organic compounds containing representative functional groups under standardized conditions(tetrahydrofuran, $0{\circ}$) were studied in order to characterize the reducing characteristics of the reagent for selective reductions. The reducing ability of STDEA was also compared with those of the parent sodium aluminum hydride (SAH) and lithium tris(diethylamino)aluminum hydride (LTDEA). The reagent appears to be milder than LTDEA. Nevertheless, the reducing action of STDEA is very similar to that observed previously for LTDEA, as is the case of the corresponding parent sodium and lithium aluminum hydrides. STDEA shows a unique reducing characteristics. Thus, benzyl alcohol, phenol and 1-hexanol evolved hydrogen slowly, whereas 3-hexanol and 3-ethyl-3-pentanol, secondary and tertiary alcohols, were essentially inert to STDEA. Primary amine, such as n-hexylamine, evolved only 1 equivalent of hydrogen slowly. On the other hand, thiols examined were absolutely stable. STDEA reduced aidehydes and ketones rapidly to the corresponding alcohols. The stereoselectivity in the reduction of cyclic ketones by STDEA was similar to that by LTDEA. Quinones, such as p-benzoquinone and anthraquinone, were reduced to the corresponding 1,4-dihydroxycyclohexadienes without evolution of hydrogen. Carboxylic acids and anhydrides were reduced very slowly, whereas acid chlorides were reduced to the corresponding alcohols readily. Esters and epoxides were also reduced readily. Primary carboxamides consumed hydrides for reduction slowly with concurrent hydrogen evolution, but tertiary amides were readily reduced to the corresponding tertiary amines. The rate of reduction of aromatic nitriles was much faster than that of aliphatic nitriles. Nitrogen compounds examined were also reduced slowly. Finally, disulfide, sulfoxide, sulfone, and cyclohexyl tosylate were readily reduced without evolution of hydrogen. In addition to that, the reagent appears to be an excellent partial reducing agent: like LTDEA, STDEA converted ester and primary carboxamides to the corresponding aldehydes in good yields. Furthermore, the reagent reduced aromatic nitriles to the corresponding aldehydes chemoselectively in the presence of aliphatic nitriles. Consequently, STDEA can replace LTDEA effectively, with a higher selectivity, in most organic reductions.

본 연구에서는 제2세대 항히스타민제인 에피나스틴 염산염의 대량합성을 위한 개선된 합성법을 제시하였다. 기존의 합성경로는 중요중간체인 aminomethyl 유도체를 합성하기 위해 독성이 매우 강한 phosgene과 sodium cyanide 및 폭발 위험성이 있으며 고가인 aluminum chloride와 lithium aluminum hydride 등 대량합성에 부적합한 위험물질을 사용해야 하는 단점이 있다. 이를 해결하기 위해서 먼저 phthalimidomethyl 유도체를 합성한 다음 염산 또는 methylhydrazine을 사용하여 phthalyl 기를 용이하게 제거하는 방법으로 aminomethyl 유도체를 합성하였고, 이 과정에서 위험물질 및 고가의 반응물의 사용을 배제하였는바 이는 산업상 매우 유용한 개량방법이라 하겠다.

The approximate rates and stoichiometry of the reaction of excess sodium diethyldihydroaluminate (SDDA) with 68 selected organic compounds containing representative functional groups were examined under standard conditions (THF-toluene, $0^{\circ}C$ in order to compare its reducing characteristics with lithium aluminum hydride (LAH), aluminum hydride, and diisobutylaluminum hydride (DIBAH) previously examined, and enlarge the scope of its applicability as a reducing agent. Alcohols, phenol, thiols and amines evolve hydrogen rapidly and quantitatively. Aldehydes and ketones of diverse structure are reduced rapidly to the corresponding alcohols. Reduction of norcamphor gives 11% exo-and 89% endo-norborneol. Conjugated aldehydes such as cinnamaldehyde are rapidly and cleanly reduced to the corresponding allylic alcohols. p-Benzoquinone is mainly reduced to hydroquinone. Hexanoic acid and benzoic acid liberate hydrogen rapidly and quantitatively, however reduction proceeds very slowly. Acid chlorides and esters tested are all reduced rapidly to the corresponding alcohols. However cyclic acid anhydrides such as succinic anhydride are reduced to the lactone stage rapidly, but very slowly thereafter. Although alkyl chlorides are reduced very slowly alkyl bromides, alkyl iodides and epoxides are reduced rapidly with an uptake of 1 equiv of hydride. Styrene oxide is reduced to give 1-phenylethanol quantitatively. Primary amides are reduced very slowly; however, tertiary amides take up 1 equiv of hydride rapidly. Tertiary amides could be reduced to the corresponding aldehydes in very good yield ( > 90%) by reacting with equimolar SDDA at room temperature. Hexanenitrile is reduced moderately accompanying 0.6 equiv of hydrogen evolution, however the reduction of benzonitrile proceeds rapidly to the imine stage and very slowly thereafter. Benzonitrile was reduced to give 90% yield of benzaldehyde by reaction with 1.1 equiv of hydride. Nitro compounds, azobenzene and azoxybenzene are reduced moderately at $0^{\circ}C$, but nitrobenzene is rapidly reduced to hydrazobenzene stage at room temperature. Cyclohexanone oxime is reduced to the hydroxylamine stage in 12 h and no further reaction is apparent. Pyridine is reduced sluggishly at $0^{\circ}C$, but moderately at room temperature to 1,2-dihydropyridine stage in 6 h; however further reaction is very slow. Disulfides and sulfoxides are reduced rapidly, whereas sulfide, sulfone, sulfonic acid and sulfonate are inert under these reaction conditions.

2-Hydroxymethyl-2,5-dihydrothiophene 1,1-dioxide (1) was prepared from thiophene-2-carboxylic acid by consecutive reactions involving the Birch reduction, esterification, reduction with lithium aluminum hydride, and oxidation with Oxone$^{\circledR}$. The esterification of alcohol 1 with various unsaturated carboxylic acids provided the precursors 8 for the intramolecular Diels-Alder reaction. The cheletropic expulsion of sulfur dioxide from the esters 8 followed by intramolecular Diels-Alder reaction furnished bicyclic ${\gamma}$-and ${\delta}$-lactones.
