Significantly improved Bouveault-Blanc conditions for ester reduction have been developed using sodium in silica gel (Na-SG), a free-flowing powder that can be easily handled in the open atmosphere. Primary alcohols were prepared in excellent yield from a variety of aliphatic esters under mild reaction conditions. The chemistry presented here is far safer than the classic Bouveault-Blanc reduction and is competitive with more modern hydride reduction methods.

Metal-catalyzed reactions of ynimides with alcohols to afford β-ketoimides and oxazoles are demonstrated. The triple bond of ynamides is generally activated by mineral acids or metal salts to lead to the regioselective addition of nucleophiles at the α-C-
