Add 200mol amorphous into the anaerobic reaction systemSelenium powderAnd 0.20mlAnhydrous ethanolAnd then add 130 mol under 0 ℃ and nitrogenhydrazine And 0.26ml absolute ethanol, which can be used for the next reaction after several hours of reaction.It can also be carried out with hydrogen peroxide or iodine containing trace copper ionshydrazineThe diimide was prepared by deoxidation of.[1]

Reducing agent.The reaction between diimide and olefin is carried out through a cyclic complex intermediate, so it is a cis addition.Trans diimide does not react with olefins.[2]
