Hydrochloric Acid → 6-(2-aminoethyl)-3,3-dimethylbenzo[c][1,2]oxaborol-1(3H)-ol hydrochloride

Participants

Reaction Steps

To a solution of (E)-3,3-dimethyl-6-(2-nitrovinyl)benzo[c][1,2]oxaborol-1(3H)-ol (117 mg, 0.5 mmol) in MeOH (15 mL) at rt was added Pd(OH)2 (20%) dust (48 mg, 0.078 mmol) and HCl (3N, 0.3 mL). The reaction mixture was stirred at rt for 8 h under H2 atmosphere. Methanol was added and the mixture was filtered through Celite. The organic layer was concentrated under reduced pressure to give the crude compound 6-(2-aminoethyl)-3,3-dimethylbenzo[c][1,2]oxaborol-1(3H)-ol hydrochloride as a light yellow oil. It was used in next step without further purification. MS: m/z=206.1 (M+1, ESI+).
