Preparation and use of lithium tritide and lithium trimethoxyborotritide

Article abstract of DOI:10.1080/00397919508011815

Two new tritide reducing agents, Li³H and Li(CH₃O)₃B³H, have been prepared at the carrier-free level and used to reduce 2-naphthaldehyde to tritiated β-naphthalene methanol, to produce C³H₃OR, and to synthesize a methyl-tritiated secondary amine.
