Sonochemically‐Induced Reduction of Alkenes to Alkanes with Ammonia
Angewandte Chemie, Volume 134, Issue 51, December 19, 2022., 2022 Ammonia is used as a hydrogen source for the reduction of alkenes to alkanes. The originality stems from the use of cavitation bubbles that act as “microreactors” to break the N−H bond of NH3. As a result, this protocol does not involve any catalyst and it releases nitrogen (and partly hydrogen) as a sole co‐product.
