Posner,Shulman-Roskes,Oh,Carry,Green,Clark,Dai,Anjeh
, p. 6489 - 6492 (1991)
BF3·OEt2 in methylene chloride at 25°C for 2 hours or less is shown to be effective for easy conversion of tertiary alcohols into the corresponding thermodynamically most stable alkenes.
Triphenylbismuth dibromide-iodine: An efficient reagent for the dehydration of alcohols
Dorta,Dorta, Rosa L.,Suarez,Suarez, Ernesto,Betancor,Betancor, Carmen
, p. 5035 - 5038 (1994)
Tertiary and secondary alcohols react under mild conditions with triphenylbismuth dibromide and iodine under an inert atmosphere to give the corresponding most stable alkenes in good yields.
