Myers deoxygenation
Overview
In organic chemistry, the Myers deoxygenation reaction is an organic redox reaction that reduces an alcohol into an alkyl position by way of an arenesulfonylhydrazine as a key intermediate. This name reaction is one of four discovered by Andrew Myers that are named after him; this reaction and the Myers allene synthesis reaction involve the same type of intermediate. The other reactions are Myers' asymmetric alkylation and Myers-Saito Cycloaromatization.
