Abstract

... Page 2. J. Org. Chem. 1980,45, 2551-2553 2551 Table 11. ... In diglyme it is possible to selectively reduce alkyl iodides and bromides without significant attack on alkyl tosylates. It was desirable to test the applicability of these ob- servations in organic synthetic transformations. ...
