An efficient procedure to deoxygenate hydroxy substituted flavonoids, isoflavonoids and related compounds via their trifluoromethanesulfonates is presented. Their reduction with formic acid in the presence of a catalytic amount of palladium acetate, triethylamine and 1,3-bis(diphenyl-phosphanyl) propane (dppp) in DMF results in their des-hyaroxy derivatives without affecting other functional groups.
