Reaction Steps

2-methyl-2-(4-(4,4,5,5-tetramethyl-1,3,2-dioxaborolan-2-yl)phenyl)propanoic acid (example 20d) (10 g, 34.46 mmol), EDC (7.26 g, 37.91 mmol) and HOBt (5.12 g, 37.91 mmol) were mixed in DCM (350 mL) and stirred for 5 minutes then 2-methylpropan-1-amine (3.6 mL, 36.19 mmol) was added. The reaction mixture was stirred at room temperature overnight then diluted with dichloromethane and washed successively with aq. HCl (0.5N), water, aq. NaHCO3, water and brine, dried over MgSO4, filtered and evaporated. The residue was crystallized from EtOAc/hexane to give 11.8 g of product as a white solid in 99% yield. 1H NMR (400 MHz, CDCl3): δ 0.76-0.78 (d, 6H), 1.35(s, 12H), 1.57 (s, 6H), 1.62 (m, 1H), 2.97 (t, 2H), 5.15 (br-s, 1H), 7.38-7.40 (d, 2H), 7.79-7.81 (d, 2H). MS (M+H, 346).
