Procedure

20 ml of freshly distilled THF was flushed for 30 min with a stream of nitrogen after which benzothiazole (1.0 g, 7.4 mmol) was added. After being flushed for another 30 min, the solution was cooled to −78° C. and placed under inert nitrogen atmosphere. 0.9 equivalents of n-BuLi (2 M solution in hexane, 2.66 ml, 6.66 mmol) was added dropwise over a period of 30 min, during which the solution turned to deep red. The solution was kept at −78° C. for 1 h and then tri-n-butyltin chloride (2.0 mi, 7.4 mmol) was added dropwise over a period of 1 h. During this addition, the solution shifted from deep red to brownish yellow, then to greenish blue and finally to light brown. After yet another hour at −78° C., the solution was allowed to reach room temperature. The THF was removed on a rotary evaporator and the product, a yellow oil, was isolated by distillation in vacuo. Yield: 2.47 g, 79%. 1H NMR (CDCl3): δ 0.90 (t, J═S, 9H, Bu3Sn), 1.29 (in, 6H, Bu3Sn), 1.35 (m, 6H, Bu3Sn), 1.63 (t, J=8, 6H, Bu3Sn), 7.37 (t, J=8, 1H, ArH), 7.46 (t, J=8, 1H, ArH, 7.96 (d, J=8, 1H, ArH), 8.17 (D, J=8, 1H, ArH).
