Response to the peer review
Hi Wilsondaily! Thank you for your time and I have read through your thoughtful comments. Here are my response (in bullet points) to your comments:


 * 1) I noticed there were some run-on sentences in the second paragraph of the introduction. Some minor editing could fix this issue.
 * 2) * I am not sure which sentence you are referring to, but I have splitted the last sentence of the second paragraph to improve the clarity.
 * 3) The author also mentions mozingo reduction, and the wolf-kishner reaction but doesn't bring it up in the rest of the article. I would cut this part out, unless you add it somewhere else in the article.
 * 4) * I agree with the reviewer. Instead of leaving it in the introduction, I have moved this section near the end. I want to keep this for anyone who wants additional information related to Clemmensen reduction.
 * 5) some more applications could be added.
 * 6) * I have added one more application involving a modified Clemmensen reduction. In addition, I added more details on why Clemmensen reduction was especially useful for synthesising dibarrelane.
 * 7) There are some sentences in the article which could be improved by splitting into multiple sentences or cutting out some useless words and shortening an idea
 * 8) * Thank you for the suggestion. I have read through and edited the article.

In addition to the above comments, I have also organized and divided the introduction into more specific sections, so the introduction only give a general overview of what Clemmensen reduction is.
