    Metal Hydrides
    (Institute of Chemistry Ceylon, 2021-04) Perera,K Sarath D
    We know that main group hydrides such as LiAlH4 and NaBH4 are the common reducing agents used by organic chemists to reduce aldehydes, ketones and carboxylic acids. Transition metal hydrides act as good catalysts for hydrogenation, isomerization, hydroformylation and hydrocyanation of olefins. The coordination modes of the hydride ligand are as follows.
