The Birch reduction of 2- and 5-acylfuran-3-carboxylic acid 1 and 4 gave 2-acyl-2,3-dihydrofuran-3-carboxylic acid 2 and 5-acyltetrahydrofuran-3-carboxylic acid 5, respectively. Further examination of the reductive elimination was also studied on 2-(arylm
The rapid reduction of α,α-diaryl alcohols to the corresponding alkanes using iodotrimethylsilane

The utility of iodotrimethylsilane has been extended to include the rapid and highly selective reduction of α,α-diaryl alcohols. The reduction of a series of α-hydroxyfuroic acids in near quantitative yield has been demonstrated and the mechanism discussed.
