Reaction Steps

To a 150-mL round-bottomed flask was added (3R)-tert-butyl 4-(1-(6-fluoropyridin-3-yl)ethyl)-3-methylpiperazine-1-carboxylate (3.0 g, 9.28 mmol), and tetrahydrofuran (100 mL, 9.28 mmol). The solution was stirred at −78° C. and treated dropwise via syringe with butyllithium solution, 2.5 m in hexanes (4.08 mL, 10.20 mmol) (Aldrich). The solution was stirred at −78° C. for 1 hr and treated in one portion with triisopropyl borate (2.55 mL, 11.13 mmol) (Aldrich). The mixture was stirred at −78° C. for 1 hour. NaOH (1.0N (30 mL) was added and the solution was stirred at room temperature for 30 minutes. The aqueous layer was separated and the organic layer was extracted with additional NaOH (1.0N, 30 mL). The combined aqueous layer was carefully acidified with 5N HCl (12 mL) to a final pH of about 4 to 5. The reaction mixture was extracted with EtOAc (3×100 mL) and the organic extract was dried over sodium sulfate, filtered and concentrated under a vacuum to give 5-(1-((R)-4-(tert-butoxycarbonyl)-2-methylpiperazin-1-yl)ethyl)-2-fluoropyridin-3-ylboronic acid (2.5 g, 6.81 mmol, 73.4% yield).
