The reaction was stirred at 50 °C for 20 hours before cooling and the solvents removed. Analysis of crude 1 H NMR using internal standard 1,2‐dimethoxyethane showed 7.3:1 meta:para borylation in 89% yield. The crude product was purified by silica gel chromatography (Pet. Ether (40‐60):EtOAc (9:1) to give the title compound (as a 7.4:1 mixture of meta:para ratio, as determined by 1 H NMR) as a white solid (85.3 mg, 0.22 mmol, 88%).
