An iridium-catalyzed, highly efficient, and site-selective deoxygenation of primary, secondary, and tertiary alcohols has been realized, under the assistance of a 4-(N-substituted amino)aryl directing group. Only the hydroxyl adjacent to the directing group can be deoxygenated. The deoxygenation is performed in water, with formic acid as both the promoter and hydride donor. Excellent yields and functionality tolerance, as well as high efficiency (S/C up to 1000 000, TOF up to 445 000 h-1), are obtained. The kinetic isotope effect studies show that hydride formation is the rate-determining step, and the deoxygenation follows an SN1-type pathway. The deoxygenation protocol has been demonstrated useful in the structural modification of naturally occurring ketones and steroids.
EXTREMELY REACTIVE CARBON-CARBON DOUBLE BONDS-I; REACTIONS WITH 2-(9-XANTHYLIDENE)-, 2-(9-THIOXANTHYLIDENE)-, AND 2-(9-FLUORENYLIDENE)-INDANE-1,3-DIONE. A CONTRIBUTION ON THE STRUCTURE AND REACTIVITY OF NON-PLANAR C-C DOUBLE BONDS

The compounds in the title (cf 1a, 1b and 2) react with various reagents, often under mild conditions, mostly by breaking of the central double bond.According to X-ray diffraction the central double bond of 2-(9-xanthylidene)indane-1,3-dione is inclined by 47.2 deg.The relationship between the structure and reactivity of the compounds in the title is discussed.
