Graphical Abstract
  • orientational order and hence the clearing temperature is determined both by the alkoxy chain lengths as well as the rigid gallic acid moiety. In order to eliminate the influence of the alkyl side chain on the odd-even effect of the tetraphenylenes the melting temperatures Tmalk of n-alkanes were subtracted

The differences between the clearing temperatures Tcl [°C] of tetraphenylenes 2 and the melting points Tmalk of the n-alkanes exhibit an almost normal odd-even effect without any inversion of the alteration.

Such a process complies with the long-standing pursuit of an environmentally acceptable process for desulfurisation, dehalogenation or deoxygenation that operates under mild reaction conditions. In this context, special attention must be paid to a paper

Graphical Abstract
  • -dithiocarbonates (S-xanthates), iodides, O-alkyl-dithiocarbonates (O-xanthates) and related compounds to the corresponding alkanes is very important in organic synthesis, especially in natural products chemistry.[1][2] Deoxygenation (Barton-McCombie reaction) has been largely used to handle sensitive compounds
  • and 2b, respectively. Interestingly, secondary S-alkylxanthates 3a–5a were cleanly reduced to the corresponding alkanes in excellent yields (up to 80%) (Table 1, entries 3–5). When the starting material was soluble enough, there was no need for an extra solvent other than the mixture of hexanes
  • . Thus, compounds 10a, 12a–14a gave the corresponding alkanes in fair to good yields (entries 8–11). The reduction of a tertiary xanthate, without risk of any pseudo-Tchugaev thermal elimination, was also feasible in good yield as shown by reaction of compound 15a (entry 12).
