7. For related "hydrogen auto-transfer" reactions, alcohol dehydrogenation and nucleophile generation occur independently. Hence, conventional pre-activated nucleophiles are required. Such processes deliver products of formal alcohol substitution rather than carbonyl addition. For selected reviews, see
