Water → 4-(Bromomethyl)phenylboronic acid

참여 물질

반응 단계

A mixture of 4-methylphenylboronic acid (27.2 g; 0.2 mole) in methyl chloroform (250 ml) was heated at reflux with azeotropic removal of water until approximately 2.5 ml of water was collected and a crystalline slurry was formed. A solution of azo(bisisobutyronitrile) (1.0 g) and bromine (32 g) in methyl chloroform (25 ml) was added to the refluxing slurry over 2-3 hours. The mixture was then refluxed until the bromine colour was discharged. The reaction mixture was allowed to cool and stirred at 10°-15° C. for 30 minutes. The suspended solid was collected by filtration, washed with methyl chloroform (2×50 ml) and dried at ambient temperature to give the anhydride of 4-bromomethylphenylboronic acid (29 g) (Compound A) as a white, crystalline solid.
