Reaction Steps

A solution of 5.03 g of lithium n-butyltriphenylborate in 50 ml of acetonitrile was added to a solution of 6.65 g of diphenylphenacylsulfonium perchlorate in 100 ml of acetonitrile, and the resultant mixture was stirred at room temperature for 30 minutes. Then, 200 ml of water was added. The resultant precipitate of a yellow oily component was recovered, and 100 ml of dichloromethane was added. The dichloromethane layer was washed with water, dried and concentrated to give 3.67 of diphenylphenacylsulfonium-n-butyltriphenylborate. Melting point: 121-124 (gradually melted around 110° C.).
