Reaction Steps

A solution of 4.05 g of lithium n-butyltriphenylborate in 50 ml of acetonitrile was added to a solution of 5.00 g of diphenylbenzylsulfonium tetrafluoroborate 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 2.95 g of diphenylbenzylsulfonium-n-butyltriphenylborate.
