Daucus carota mediated-reduction of cyclic 3-oxo-amines

Org Lett. 2009 Mar 19;11(6):1245-8. doi: 10.1021/ol8029214.

Abstract

Carrots (Daucus carota) were used to reduce cyclic amino-ketones in high yields and enantiomeric excesses. This cheap, eco-compatible, and efficient reducing reagent allows the easy access to precursors of biologically active products.
