“…Sodium or potassium iodide (37,38,208,211), zinc or magnesium and water or acetic acid (233, 296, 307, 322, 520, 564), and catalytic reduction (36,297,530,537,597) appear to be used most frequently. Others are sodium bisulfite (135, 467), sulfur dioxide (595), stannous chloride (517), Raney nickel (72,189), and formaldehyde (517). Sodium bisulfite is useful in cases where one of the reduction products is an aldehyde and it is necessary to separate it from another product (467).…”
