Abstract

We are currently investigating 1 the behaviour of PI3 and P214, two inorganic reagents which have been only scarcely used in the past and which we found valuable as reducing agents2. We now find that these readily available reagents ... 3 reduce a-iodo and a-bromo ketones to ... The methods proposed can be advantageously compared to the ones already described ... The mechanism of this reaction is not clear at present. The transformation can be ...
