Can reductions be done using microwave irradiation?

Yes. This is usually performed using transfer hydrogenation. Start with a low concentration (<0.2 mmol) and a low temperature (between 100-140ÂșC) for about 3 mins. If after cooling there is residual pressure in the process vial, insert a needle through the vent-port in the lid to release the pressure prior to lid opening.
