Reductive dehalogenation of α-haloketones promoted by hydroiodic acid and without solvent

Article abstract of DOI:10.1080/00397919308011227

Several α-haloketones have been transformed into the corresponding ketones by reaction with aqueous 57% HI, without solvent. The products are obtained in nearly quantitative yields and with high purity (>99%) even in the case of sterically hindered starting materials.
