Participants
| Role | Name | HCID | Charge |
|---|---|---|---|
| Reactant | 2-Fluorobenzophenone | HCID 67650 | — |
| Reactant | Sodium borohydride | HCID 4311764 | — |
| Solvent | Ethanol | HCID 702 | — |
| Product | (2-Fluorophenyl)(phenyl)methanol | HCID 10584252 | 99% |
Reaction Steps
2-Fluorobenzophenone (15.0 g) is dissolved in ethanol and sodium borohydride (3.8 g) is added in portions and the mixture is stirred for 20 hours. The reacted solution is concentrated under reduced pressure and extracted with chloroform and water to give crude (2-fluorophenyl)phenylmethanol (15.0 g) (quantitative) as colorless liquid.
