Reaction Steps

A solution of boron tribromide 1M in CH2Cl2 (11.9 ml, 11.9 mmoles) was slowly added to a solution of 6-benzyloxy-3-cyclohexyl-1,2-benzisothiazole (3.5 g, 10 mmoles) in CH2Cl2 (50 ml) at 0° C. The mixture was stirred at room temperature for 15 min and poured into water. The precipitate was filtered, dried and crystallised from EtOH to give pure 3-cyclohexyl-1,2-benzisothiazol-6-ol (940 mg, 40.3%). mp 190° C.
