Potassium Carbonate → N-methyl-2-(4-(4,4,5,5-tetramethyl-1,3,2-dioxaborolan-2-yl)-1H-pyrazol-1-yl)propanamide

Participants

Reaction Steps

A suspension of 4-(4,4,5,5-tetramethyl-1,3,2-dioxaborolan-2-yl)-1H-pyrazole (5.29 g, 27.3 mmol), 2-bromo-N-methylpropanamide (9.05 g, 54.5 mmol) and potassium carbonate (5.65 g, 40.9 mmol) in 136 ml acetone was refluxed for 68 hours. The white suspension was filtered through Celite with acetone washes; and the filtrate was concentrated and purified via silica gel chromatography (80 mm; 1 L 65% ethyl acetate/hexanes to 80% ethyl acetate/hexanes) to afford the title compound.
