Cesium carbonate → tert-Butyl 3-((4-(4,4,5,5-tetramethyl-1,3,2-dioxaborolan-2-yl)-1H-pyrazol-1-yl)methyl)phenylcarbamate

Participants

Reaction Steps

To a solution of 4-(4,4,5,5-tetramethyl-1,3,2-dioxaborolan-2-yl)-1H-pyrazole (0.88 g, 4.54 mmol) in acetonitrile (20 mL) was added cesium carbonate (4.43 g, 13.61 mmol) and tert-butyl 3-(bromomethyl)phenylcarbamate (1.298 g, 4.54 mmol). The reaction was stirred at room temperature for 3 h. After this time, the reaction mixture was diluted with ethyl acetate and washed with water and brine. The aqueous phase was extracted with CHCl3. The combined organic layer was dried over anhydrous MgSO4, filtered, and concentrated. The resulting residue was purified by (0-100% ethyl acetate:hexanes) to afford the title compound (1.06 g, 2.65 mmol, 59% yield) as a colorless oil. LCMS, [M+H]+=400.3.
