Reaction of (1-azabuta-1,3-diene)tricarbonyliron(0) complexes with sodium b
orohydride under microwave irradiation leads to formation of saturated seco
ndary amines. When sodium borodeuteride is used for the reaction the produc
ts are 1,2,3-trideutero secondary amines. When this reaction is performed u
nder thermal conditions the complexes are inert to reduction by sodium boro
hydride. (C) 2000 Elsevier Science S.A. All rights reserved.
