• Uses: Cerium(III) chloride heptahydrate can be used in the conversion of esters to allylsilanes. Cerium(III) chloride heptahydrate is used in the preparation of allylsilanes from esters. It is used as a reducing agent in organic synthesis in place of sodium borohydride. In Luche reaction, carvone gives selectively allylic alcohol. Catalyst employed in a solvent-free microwave-assisted synthesis of 2-quinolones via condensation of ?-ketoesters with o-anilinoketones. Coupled with NaI promotes the Beckmann rearrangement of oximes.
