A convenient procedure for the radical deoxygenation of tertiary alcohols has been invented using the double half esters of oxalic acid with the t-alcohol and N-hydroxypyridine-2-thione.Decomposition of this type of ester in the presence of 1,1-dimethylethane- or (better) 1,1-diethylpropane-thiol gave the corresponding hydrocarbons in good yield.It has been shown that the oxalate fragmentation is not concerted, but involves a stepwise loss of carbon dioxide.Tertiary alcohols are also a convenient source of radicals for addition to siutable alkenes with formation of quaternary centres.

Toluene radical anion generated from potassium metal/dicyclohexano-18-crown-6/toluene system has been proved to be highly effective for reductive decyanation reaction of primary, secondary and tertiary cyanides.
A New Method for the Radical Deoxygenation of Tertiary Alcohols
Barton, Derek H. R.,Crich, David
, p. 774 - 775 (2007/10/02)
Tertiary alcohols can be deoxygenated in a radical chain reaction based on their mixed oxalate esters with N-hydroxy-2-thiopyridone, these esters being obtained directly from the alcohols and oxalyl chloride etc. or via their trimethylsilyl derivatives.

The thioformates of tertiary alcohols are smoothly reduced by tributyl tin hydride to the corresponding hydrocarbon in a radical chain reaction.

Primary, secondary, and tertiary aliphatic or alicyclic isocyanides are smoothly reduced under radical conditions using tri-n-butylstannane to the corresponding hydrocarbons.The relative ease of reduction is tertiary > secondary > primary.Aromatic isocyanides are not reduced under these conditions.The reduction of isothiocyanates (or isoselenocyanates) by tri-n-butylstannanae also affords hydrocarbons, but here the isocyanides have been shown to be intermediates.The reduction of a compound with isocyanide and xanthate functions in a 1,2-relationship gives a smooth radical fragmentation to furnish an olefin.An efficient synthesis of 2-deoxy-D-glucose starting with glucosamine is described.
