Trimethyl borate → (1R)-1-(6-Bromo-2-pyridinyl)-1-pentanol

참여 물질

반응 단계

To a stirring solution of (S)-(−)-α,α-diphenyl-2-pyrrolidinemethanol (α,α-diphenyl-L-prolinol) (840 mg, 3.32 mmol) in THF (3 mL) was added drop-wise trimethylborate (0.45 mL, 3.97 mmol) at ambient temperature under nitrogen. After stirring for 1 h at this temperature, borane dimethylsulfide (2M in THF, 2.5 mL, 5.00 mmol) drop-wise over 3-4 minutes. After the effervescence had stopped, 1-(6-bromo-2-pyridinyl)-1-pentanone (797 mg, 3.29 mmol) in THF (3.6 mL) was added over 1 h using a syringe pump. The mixture was stirred for an additional 5 minutes and the reaction was then quenched with aqueous HCl (2N, 5 mL) and the reaction mixture stirred overnight at ambient temperature. The mixture was then reduced under vacuum and the residue partitioned between EtOAc (30 mL) and water (30 mL) and the layers separated. The aqueous was then re-extracted with EtOAc (30 mL) and the combined organic layer washed with brine (50 mL) and then reduced under vacuum to give an oil. Purification by SPE (silica, 20 g cartridge) eluting with cyclohexane:EtOAc (gradient 100:1 to 3:1) afforded the title compound as an oil (712 mg).
