Reduction of Carboxylic Acids and Esters: preparation of Alcohols
Carboxylic acids can be converted to 1o alcohols using Lithium aluminum hydride (LiAlH4). Note that NaBH4 is not strong enough to convert carboxylic acids or esters to alcohols. An aldehyde is produced as an intermediate during this reaction, but it cannot be isolated because it is more reactive than the original carboxylic acid.
Esters can be converted to 1o alcohols using LiAlH4, while sodium borohydride (NaBH4 ) is not a strong enough reducing agent to perform this reaction.
