Abstract
Recent work from our laboratories has shown SmI(2)-H(2)O to be a versatile, readily-accessible and non-toxic reductant that is more powerful than SmI(2). This review describes the reduction of functional groups that were previously thought to lie beyond the reach of SmI(2) and complexity-generating cyclisations and cyclisation cascades triggered by the reduction of the ester carbonyl group with SmI(2)-H(2)O.Entities:
