Borane;tetrahydrofuran → 2-Bromo-5-(trifluoromethyl)benzyl alcohol

참여 물질

반응 단계

To an ice-cooled solution of 2-bromo-5-(trifluoromethyl)benzoic acid (5.16 g, 19 mmol) in THF (50 mL) was added borane-tetrahydrofuran complex (70 mL of 1M solution in THF, 70 mmol). The resulting mixture was stirred at room temperature for 16 hours. The reaction mixture was quenched with methanol. Solvent was removed. The residue was partitioned between ethyl acetate (3×40 mL) and 1M sodium bicarbonate (50 mL). The combined organic layers were washed with saturated NaCl (50 mL), dried (MgSO4) and concentrated to yield the title compound as an oil (4.85 g). 1H NMR (400 MHz, CDCl3) δ 4.8 (s, 2 H) 7.5 (m, 1 H) 7.7 (d, J=8.2 Hz, 1 H) 7.8 (d, J=1.6 Hz, 1 H).
