[edit]This page contains incorrect information, there will be no reaction with sodium borohydride and a nitrile, sodium borohydride is not a strong enough reducing agent.
I added some more information about the reduction to aldehydes and a mechanism. Let me know if I should make any changes.Aw4809 (talk) 21:28, 1 January 2018 (UTC)

Mechanistic puzzle
[edit]![](http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/8/8b/DIBAL_mechanism_.tif/lossy-page1-356px-DIBAL_mechanism_.tif.jpg)
The picture shows an unlikely intramolecular transfer of hydride. Is this reaction mechanism higher order somehow?--Smokefoot (talk) 14:06, 4 January 2018 (UTC)
