Participants

Reaction Steps

To a suspension of NBS (20 g, 110 mmol, 3.0 equiv) in dichloromethane (250 mL) was added dropwise triphenylphosphine (28 g, 110 nmol, 3.0 equiv) in dichloromethane (100 mL). After addition was complete, the reaction mixture was stirred for 10 min and a solution of tert-butyl 2-fluoro-3-hydroxypropylcarbamate (1-8) (7.0 g, 36 mmol, 1 equiv) in dichloromethane (100 mL) followed by pyridine (3.5 g, 44 mmol, 1.2 equiv) were added. The resulting mixture was stirred at 23° C. under nitrogen for 16 h. The reaction solution was concentrated and purified by silica gel chromatography (100% hexanes to 100% ethyl acetate over 1 h, analysis by Ninhydrin stain) to yield tert-butyl 3-bromo-2-fluoropropylcarbamate (1-9) as a clear oil. 1H NMR (500 MHz, CDCl3) δ 4.89-4.68 (m, 2H), 3.55-3.40 (m, 2H), 1.45 (s, 9H).
