Abstract
Secondary alcohols were deoxygenated using a new version of the Barton-McCo mbie process involving a catalytic amount of supported tin hydride in the p resence of trimethoxysilane. The products are then easily separated from th e catalyst by a simple filtration avoiding pollution by toxic tin by-produc ts. (C) 2000 Elsevier Science Ltd. All rights reserved.
