When you don't want to write IEqualityComparer you can try something like following.

 class Program
{

    private static void Main(string[] args)
    {

        var items = new List();
        items.Add(new Item {Id = 1, Name = "Item1"});
        items.Add(new Item {Id = 2, Name = "Item2"});
        items.Add(new Item {Id = 3, Name = "Item3"});

        //Duplicate item
        items.Add(new Item {Id = 4, Name = "Item4"});
        //Duplicate item
        items.Add(new Item {Id = 2, Name = "Item2"});

        items.Add(new Item {Id = 3, Name = "Item3"});

        var res = items.Select(i => new {i.Id, i.Name})
            .Distinct().Select(x => new Item {Id = x.Id, Name = x.Name}).ToList();

        // now res contains distinct records
    }



}


public class Item
{
    public int Id { get; set; }

    public string Name { get; set; }
}
