After this time, triisopropylborate (7.0 g, 37 mmol) as a solution in diethylether (50 mL) was added to the solution, followed by stirring at room temperature overnight. Then the THF was removed in vacuo to leave a crude oil. This oil was taken up in 100 mL of diethylether and 100 mL of 10% sulfuric acid (aqueous) and stirred for two hours. The organic layer was separated and neutralized with saturated sodium bicarbonate solution, whereafter the solvent was removed in vacuo to yield a white solid. The solid is washed generously with pentane. Yield: 3.0 g (34%).
