Recent investigations have shown iron pentacarbonyl [Fe(CO)5] to be a useful reagent for effecting a variety of synthetic transformations.1 Non-polar solvents such as ethers have generally been employed for these reactions. In several cases, it has been demonstrated that reactions which do not take
Triphenylphosphine -iodine complex was found to be an effective reagent for deoxygenation of trisubstituted steroidal epoxides. The mechanism of the reaction is proposed.
Freshly prepared Grignard reagents in refluxing THF smoothly deoxygenate benzo-fused 1,4dihydro-1,4-epoxides to afford the corresponding naphthalenes and anthracenes in good yields.
