N,N,N',N'-Tetramethylethylenediamine → (5-Methyl-1-benzofuran-2-yl)boronic acid

Temperature

-10 °C

n-Butyl lithium (35.16 ml) was added dropwise to a stirred solution of TMEDA (9.58 ml) and 5-methylbenzofuran (8.22 g) in ether (250 ml) maintaining the temperature below -60° C. throughout. The solution was warmed to about -10° C. over 45 minutes and stirred at this temperature for 30 minutes. A precipitate formed on warming. The suspension was cooled and triisopropylborate (43 ml) was added, maintaining the temperature below -60° C. The solution was warmed gradually to room temperature before quenching with 2N HCl (70 ml). The mixture was extracted with ether (3×50 ml) and the combined organic extracts washed with 2N HCl (4×30 ml), water (2×30 ml) and dried before evaporation to give the title compound as an orange solid (12.75 g).
