  • Processes for the reduction of imide ester functionality
    Patent number: 5936090
    Abstract: The present invention provides improved processes for the chemical reduction of imide esters to the corresponding amino alcohols with yields greater than 76%. A specific range of ethereal to hydrocarbon solvent ratio is used. The improved yield can be achieved using as a reducing agent lithium aluminum hydride or the less costly sodium aluminum hydride in combination with an additive such as lithium chloride.
