β¦ Synopsis
It was found that the deoxygenative coupling of alcohols efficiently proceeded by treatment with lanthanum metal and chlorotrimethylsilane in the presence of a catalytic amount of iodine. This coupling reaction was accelerated by the addition of a catalytic amount of copper(I) iodide.

The internal OH group of 1,2-propanediol is selectively removed in the deoxygenation catalyzed by [{Cp\*Ru(CO) } (ΞΌ-H)] OTf (1, Cp\*=C Me , OTf=trifluoromethanesulfonate; see scheme). This reaction provides a model for deoxygenation of polyols derived from carbohydrates, for use in alternative, biom
We found that lanthanum metal was an excellent agent for the reduction of carbonyl compounds in the presence of a catalytic amount of iodine. When carbonyl compounds were treated with lanthanum metal in the presence of a catalytic amount of iodine, the reductive coupling of the carbonyl compounds pr
