Does this reaction actually occur?
I saw this on Rhodium, does the reduction actually occur? I thought it only occurs with hydrogenation.

Only interested in alkene reduction, couldn't give less of a fuck about the product or the rest of the reaction

Then why didn't you post the reference? Are we supposed to search for it?

You posted a reduction and an oxidation, what do you mean?
Yes, the reduction using the NaBH4/ethanol system works on nitrostyrenes with close to quantitative yields:
https://www.erowid.org/archive/rhodium/chemistry/2cb.beaker....
https://www.erowid.org/archive/rhodium/chemistry/nitrostyren...
https://www.erowid.org/archive/rhodium/chemistry/345-meo-ns....
Therefore I think it will also work on nitropropenes, though I haven't tried it.
Next time be more concise.
If you have nothing constructive to add, kindly fuck off.

Yes, I will go away as you said in more brute and vulgar words.
Please take time to write in a more polite way next time, such a reaction could make someone think you are related to illegal recreative drug
synthesis.
I never asked for this.

Well, sorry for being too harsh for your tastes, but it seems to me this is the only language you whiners understand.
Fact is: you decided to derail a thread with a perfectly legit - though improperly asked - question on chemistry. Counting this reply we now have two
posts on chemistry and four off-topic posts (which should be moved elsewhere). You are obviously not interested in the chemistry and work against the
cause of the organic chemistry subforum.
PS: I don't see anything wrong with recreation. Some people go to church, some take a line of speed and some work until they drop dead. It's
everyone's personal decision and none of your business.

I was referring to the alkene reduction. Sorry for being unclear. I later found this
https://www.erowid.org/archive/rhodium/chemistry/nitroalkene...
Could someone explain the mechanism as to how this works?

<img src="../scipics/_warn.png" /> <strong>plante1999</strong> & <strong>turd</strong>; cool it! No more arguing on
this; further flaming will be removed. You're both at fault. Any further discussion must be on-topic. <img src="../scipics/_warn.png" />
<strong>plante1999</strong>, if you have nothing constructive to say, say nothing at all. Also, one word posts are generally not
acceptable.
