Abstract
Primary alcohols can be deoxygenated cleanly and in yields of 60-95% by reduction of derived diphenyl phosphate esters with lithium triethylborohydride in tetrahydrofuran at room temperature. Selective deoxygenation of a primary alcohol in the presence of a secondary alcohol was demonstrated. The two-step process can be performed in one pot, making it simple and convenient.
