The lack of any diastereoselectivity for the formation of β-hydroxyketones with optically pure sulfinyl analogue of NAD^+ model supports the radical mechanism proposed previously.展开更多

The reductions of various α,β-unsaturated ketones by the PEG-supported NADH model were examined,and the results showed that the reductions completely and quickly proceed with no catalyst at ambient temperature. The main advantages of this liquid-like PEG-supported NADH model are easy workup,and an optimal potential for recycling use and solvent-free for use in reactions.展开更多
The rate constant and kinetic isotopic effect(k H/k D) of the reduction of 2-bromo-1-phenylethylidenemalononitrile with NADH model were determined through NMR spectroscopy.

The results were consistent with that the hydride transfer step of the reaction which was the rate-determining step, and were comparable to the results obtained through UV-Vis Spectroscopy reported previously.展开更多
