Abstract: Abstract: A facile and efficient reduction of aromatic and aliphatic acyl chlorides to their corresponding aldehydes in the presence of Sm(0)/Bu3P has been developed with broad scope. This method prevents over reduction of products, that is, the over-reduction of aldehydes to alcohols. [Copyright &y& Elsevier]
