Mild Condition for the Deoxygenation of α-Heteroaryl-Substituted Methanol Derivatives
A mild condition via PPh3/I2/imidazole for the deoxygenation of substituted methanol derivatives has been identified. This metal-free process was found to proceed well on secondary or tertiary alcohols substituted with one or two heteroaryl groups, and it tolerates acid-sensitive heterocycles. This condition works for methanol derivatives substituted with 2-pyridyl, 4-pyridyl, or other heterocyclic groups, allowing the negative charge formed during the reaction to resonate to a nitrogen atom. Methanol derivatives substituted with 3-pyridyl or heterocyclic groups that do not allow the negative charge formed during the reaction to resonate to a nitrogen atom will not undergo deoxygenation under this condition.

PHOTOCHEMISTRY OF AZOLES, PART VII. PHOTOSOLVOLYSIS OF ALKYLMERCAPTOAZOLES. AN APPLICATION TO SOME ACYCLIC MONOTERPENE DERIVATIVES
Salts derived from 2-alkylmercapto-1-methylimidazoles 1b-e and 3-alkylmercapto-4-methyl-1,2,4-triazoles 2b-d have been found to undergo photochemical heterolytic fission of the S-alkyl bond in aqueous or methanolic solution to give solvolysis-type products.
