After 1 hour, when all the magnesium has reacted, this reagent is added over 20 min to a stirred solution of trimethoxyborane (7 ml) in dry diethyl ether (80 ml) under an atmosphere of nitrogen and cooled at -78° C. The mixture is stirred at -78° C. for a further 15 min. and glacial acetic acid (6 ml) added followed by water (50 ml). The mixture is warmed to room temperature, extracted with diethyl ether (x3), washed with water, dried and the solvent evaporated under reduced pressure. The residue is stirred with carbon tetrachloride (30 ml) and then cooled at 0° C. The crystals of dihydroxy-(5-bromo-2-fluorophenyl)-borane are filtered off and washed with a little carbon tetrachloride. Yield 2.8 g m.pt. 173°-174° C.
