rato)zinc complex, [Zn(BH4)2(bpy)], is a new white stable compound which has been used for efficient reduction of variety of carbonyl compounds such as aldehydes, ketones, acyloins, α-diketones and α,β-unsaturated carbonyl compounds (1,2-reduction) to their corresponding alcohols in acetonitrile at room temperature. Excellent chemoselectivity was also observed for the reduction of aldehydes over ketones
