Abstract: 1,n-Diphenyl-1,n-diols, dibenzoylmethane, benzoylacetone and other oxygen-containing, functional groups undergo reduction by LiAlH4 in the -presence of Cp2TiCl2 catalyst.Thus present reaction provides a convenient way for replacing oxygen-containing functional groups at benzylic position by hydrogen.
