The reduction of a series of hetero- and carbocyclic aromaticcompounds under ammonia free conditions is described. By using LiDBB as a source of electrons, bis(methoxyethyl)amine (BMEA) as a protonating agent, and THF as a solvent, we were able to accomplish reductions more usually performed under Birch type conditions. Moreover, the use of these conditions was further enhanced by the tolerance of
