Reaction Conditions

Reaction Steps

To a 10 mL round bottomed flask equipped with a magnetic stir bar containing DCM (4 mL) was placed 6 (0.1 g, 0.39 mmol), the reaction mixture was cooled to 0° C., BBr3 (1.0 mL of 1M in DCM) was added drop wise and was stirred at RT for 3 hrs. The reaction was neutralized with sat. NaHCO3, extracted into DCM (3×15 mL). The combined organic extracts were washed with water (15 mL), brine (15 mL), dried over MgSO4 and concentrated in vacuo. The residue was purified over silica gel using EtOAc:Hexanes (1:4) as an eluent to afford 7 (0.09 g, 95%) as a white solid.
