Participants

Reaction Steps

27.6 ml of a 1M borane solution in THF was added dropwise to a solution of 2,98 g [69] (4.6 mmol) in 10 ml THF at 0° C., reflux-heated for two hours, cooled and 10 ml of a 1:1 mixture of HCl in water was added and the solvlent was removed in a rotary evaporator. After neutralising with 1N NaOH the mixture was extracted with dichloromethane, and dried over sodium sulphate and the solvent was removed, leaving a faintly yellow oil.
