Cp. Sar et al., SELECTIVE REDUCTION OF NITRONES AND NITROXIDES TO FUNCTIONALIZED SECONDARY-AMINES, Synthetic communications, 25(19), 1995, pp. 2929-2940
Nitrones and nitroxides were selectively reduced with Fe/AcOH to secon
dary amines in the presence of different functional groups (aldehyde,
nitrile, carboxylic ester, activated and nonactivated double or triple
