QUICK LINKS

Triisopropylsilane is a reducing agent. It functions as a strong and selective reducing agent for the reduction of various functional groups, such as ketones, esters, and amides. Its mechanism of action involves the transfer of a hydride ion to the substrate, leading to the formation of the corresponding alcohol or amine. Triisopropylsilane is particularly useful in the reduction of sensitive functional groups, such as acid chlorides and epoxides, due to its mild reaction conditions.
