Reaction Steps
A solution of 15b (90 mg, 0.16 mmol) in dichloromethane (2 mL) was cooled to −10° C. and treated with an excess of trifluoroacetic acid (10% v/v soln in dichloromethane, 2 mL). After 10 min at −10° C., the mixture was allowed to react at room temperature for 5 h. The solution was concentrated in vacuo and the residue crystallized from diethyl ether affording (+)-pinanediol (1R)-2-[3-carboxyphenyl]-1-(phenylmethanesulfonylamino)ethaneboronate (79 mg, 100% yield) as a cream coloured solid. Mp 155-158° C.
