The internal OH group of 1,2-propanediol is selectively removed in the deoxygenation catalyzed by [{Cp\*Ru(CO) } (ฮผ-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
