Participants

Reaction Steps

To a chilled (−78° C.) yellow solution of 2-methyl-propane-2-sulfinic acid 1-(3-bromo-isoxazol-5-yl)-meth-(E)-ylideneamide (129 mg, 0.462 mmol) in THF (7 mL) was added a 1 M solution of DIBAH (1.2 mL, 1.2 mmol) in hexanes dropwise. After 1.5 hours, the reaction was quenched with MeOH (4 mL) and the cold bath was removed. The mixture was concentrated in vacuo and the residue was treated with 1 N aqueous NaOH (10 mL) and extracted with EtOAc (3×). The combined organic layers were washed with brine, dried over Na2SO4, filtered and concentrated in vacuo to afford 2-methyl-propane-2-sulfinic acid (3-bromo-isoxazol-5-ylmethyl)-amide which was used without further purification. MS m/z 281.35 (M), 283.32 (M+2).
