If the temperature is too high when NaBH4 is added to already reacted NaOH and Vanillin, what is the mechanism of the decomposition of NaBH4? does NaBH4 become more reactive with H2O instead of the carbonyl group on vanillin which would instead produce NaBO2 and Hydrogen gas?

Expert Solution

The temperature is high when NaBH₄ is added to already reacted NaOH and Vanillin, it is because decomposition of NaBH₄ is taking place at high temperatures.

No, NaBH4 is not reactive with H₂O instead of the carbonyl group on vaniline.
