Cesium carbonate → HCID 58292666, compound

Participants

Reaction Steps

To a mixture of ethyl 2-(1,6-dihydroxy-4-methyl-1,3-dihydrobenzo[c][1,2]oxaborol-3-yl)acetate (2 g, 8 mmol, 1 eq.) and 4-chloro-2-nitropyridine (2.53 g, 16 mmol, 2 eq.) in 50 ml of DMF was added cesium carbonate (7.8 g, 24 mmol, 3 eq.). The reaction was stirred at room temperature overnight. It was then quenched by water, extracted with EtOAc, washed with brine, dried over Na2SO4, and concentrated under reduced pressure. The crude was purified by column chromatography on silica gel (DCM/methanol=19:1 to 4:1) to give desired product as light yellow oil. MS (ESI) m/z=743 [2M−H]+.
