Sodium hydride was employed as a Michael donor under the catalysis of PdCl2 for 1,4‐conjugate reductions of α, β‐unsaturatedcarbonylcompounds, which features operational simplicity, mild conditions and high atom‐economy. The merits of NaH as a reductant were demonstrated by the one‐pot or cascade reactions for the syntheses of complex molecules.

Disclosed are a reduction method and reduction product of an alkenyl active methylene compound. The reduction reaction comprises the following steps: taking an alkenyl active methylene compound as a substrate, a metal hydride as a reducing agent, and a palladium compound as a catalyst, performing a reduction reaction to obtain a reduction product, and then reducing the alkenyl active methylene compound. The reduction system is a simple method for reducing the alkenyl active methylene compound, and the used hydride and palladium compound catalyst are both reagents that could easily be obtained in a laboratory. Compared with conventional hydrogen hydrogenation methods and reduction methods of reducing agents, the method is easier to operate, higher in safety, mild in conditions, and high in reaction yield, a reaction in a one-pot two-step manner can be achieved, and high atom economy and step economy can be obtained.
