Reaction Steps

A solution of 2.07 g of lithium benzyltriethylborate in 50 ml of acetonitrile was added to solution of 5.00 g of diphenyl(p-methylphenacyl)sulfonium (p-toluenesulfonate) 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 2.12 g of diphenyl(p-methylphenacyl)sulfonium-benzyltriethylborate.
