%T Radical deoxygenation of xanthates and related functional groups with new minimalist N-heterocyclic carbene boranes
%X Minimalist N-heterocyclic carbene boranes 1,3-dimethylimidazol-2- ylideneborane and 2,4-dimethyl-1,2,4-triazol-3-ylideneborane are readily available and have low molecular weights. They exhibit superior performance to first-generation NHC-boranes, providing improved yields in reductions of xanthates and related functional groups. ? 2010 American Chemical Society.
