A selective removal of the secondary hydroxy group from ortho-dithioacetal-substituted diarylmethanols

A selective removal of the secondary hydroxy group from ortho-dithioacetal-substituted diarylmethanols

We present a successful deoxygenation reaction of ortho-1,3-dithianylaryl(aryl)methanols which enables a selective removal of the secondary hydroxy group in presence of the 1,3-dithianyl moiety under reductive conditions. This reaction proceeds well with ZnI2/Na(CN)BH3 in dichloroethane or benzene f...
