Reaction Steps

7-Methyl-5-(4,4,5,5-tetramethyl-1,3,2-dioxaborolan-2-yl)-1H-benzo[d]imidazol-2-amine 3-Methyl-5-(4,4,5,5-tetramethyl-1,3,2-dioxaborolan-2-yl)benzene-1,2-diamine (See Example 1.G) (500 mg, 2.015 mmol) and cyanic bromide (0.484 mL, 2.418 mmol) were added to a round bottom flask at room temperature, suspended in methanol (10.0 mL) and allowed to stir for 1.5 h. Volatiles were removed under reduced pressure followed by the addition of saturated sodium bicarbonate. The precipitate was collected via filtration, washed with ethyl acetate and dried under reduced pressure to afford the title compound (557 mg, 2.039 mmol, quant. yield). Compound was carried forward without further purification or characterization. MS (ESI) m/z 273.8 [M+1]+.
