We discovered an efficient protocol for the conversion of tertiary and secondary benzylic alcs. into the corresponding alkanes in good to quant. yields by employing tin(IV) ion-exchanged montmorillonite (Sn-Mont) as a solid acid catalyst and Et3SiH as the hydride source. The reaction is likely to proceed via the SN1-type reaction mechanism, i.e., the formation of carbenium ions, followed by the addition of a hydride from the silane. The work-up of the reaction only requires simple filtration of the solid acid without any neutralization of the acid catalyst.
