title: Pd-C-induced catalytic transfer hydrogenation with triethylsilane.
abstract: In situ generation of molecular hydrogen by addition of triethylsilane to palladium-charcoal catalyst results in rapid and efficient reduction of multiple bonds, azides, imines, and nitro groups, as well as benzyl group and allyl group deprotection under mild, neutral conditions.
