Kato, Yuichi; Inoue, Tomoka; Furuyama, Yuuki; Ohgane, Kenji; Sadaie, Mahito; Kuramochi, Kouji published the artcile< Deoxygenation of tertiary and secondary alcohols with sodium borohydride, trimethylsilyl chloride, and potassium iodide in acetonitrile>, Recommanded Product: Triphenylmethanol, the main research area is alkane preparation; tertiary secondary alc deoxygenation.
In this study, a deoxygenation method was developed for tertiary and secondary alcs., ROH [R = triphenylmethyl, 9-phenyl-9H-xanthen-9-yl, bis(4-methoxyphenyl)(thiophen-2-yl)methyl, etc.] using trimethylsilane and trimethylsilyl iodide generated in situ from sodium borohydride and trimethylsilyl chloride, and trimethylsilyl chloride and potassium iodide, resp. In this method, tertiary and secondary alcs., which provided stable carbocations, were converted into the corresponding alkanes RH. This paper also presents the optimization of the reaction conditions, the reaction mechanism, as well as the scope and limitations of the method.
