A wide range of amides containing different functional groups were readily converted into their corresponding aldehydes by means of a simple protocol. The reaction with [Ti(O i Pr) 4 ] and Ph 2 SiH 2 proceeds at room temperature via an enamine intermediate, which is then hydrolyzed to afford the aldehyde [Eq (a)].
