View all references However, these deoxygenations often require prolonged reaction times and severe reaction conditions. Some of these are associated with limitations regarding selectivity and compatibility with other functional groups, are hazardous, and are sensitive to both air and moisture. Consequently, there is still a need for introducing selective, mild, and cheap reagents for the deoxygenation of amine??N??oxides to amines. The reduction of CoCl 2 to ...
