An oxidation-reduction reaction is any chemical reaction in which the oxidation number of a molecule, atom, or ion changes by gaining or losing an electron. Redox reactions are common and vital to some of the basic functions of life, including photosynthesis, respiration, combustion, and corrosion or rusting.

Two types of reactions might occur when concentrated sulfuric acid is added to a solid ionic halide like sodium fluoride, chloride, bromide or iodide. The concentrated sulfuric acid can act as both an acid and an oxidizing agent.

    Hydride based reducing agents LiAlH₄ (lithium aluminum hydride) and NaBH₄ (sodium borohydride) react with ketones and aldehydes to produce a 1° or 2° alcohol product. Both reagents were discovered by ...Hydride based reducing agents LiAlH₄ (lithium aluminum hydride) and NaBH₄ (sodium borohydride) react with ketones and aldehydes to produce a 1° or 2° alcohol product. Both reagents were discovered by Schlesinger in the 1940s and are routinely used in organic synthesis. NaBH₄ is a milder reducing agent than LiAlH₄ and can be used in protic solvents, such as ethanol. However, LiAlH₄ must always be used in aprotic solvents, such as tetrahydrofuran, and under extremely rigorous anhydrous conditions.
