Abstract: The iron-catalyzed hydrodeoxygenation of S-alkyl thioesters and esters and desulfurisation of O-alkyl thioate derivatives using hydrosilane, leading to (thio)ethers, is described. A wide range of thioesters and esters gave the corresponding unsymmetrical thioethers and ethers… read more here.
