Peter, thanks for posting. This sounds like exactly the kind of entry that should be submitted for the Pistoia Alliance (PA) Chemical Safety Library (CSL). CAS is currently working In partnership with PA to redo the data submission and database distribution system and workflow  - so I copy the folks currently working on this for consideration during relaunch. 


Kathy/Gabrielle/Brian- take a look at the paper Peter has cited. Might make an excellent example when working on the new system. 

Best to all! =E2=80"Carmen

Please see the following description of a serious incident during an Alane-based reduction of a nitrile:

 

"Serious Explosion during Large-Scale Preparation of an Amine by Alane (AlH3) Reduction of a Nitrile Bearing a CF3 Group" https://pubs.acs.org/doi/pdf/10.1021/acs.chas.0c00045

 

The article contains a number of useful points.

Please share with your research groups.
