To a solution of 1-iodo-2,6-dinitrobenzene (1.55 g, 5.27 mmol) in anhydrous tetrahydrofuran (18 mL) cooled at minus 53° C. (dry ice-isopropanol bath) under nitrogen atmosphere, phenylmagnesium bromide (2 M in THF, 3.16 mL, 6.32 mmol) was added at a rate to keep the temperature at or below minus 45° C. Upon completion of the addition the mixture was stirred for five minutes, then isobutyraldehyde (0.957 mL, 10.54 mmol) was added. The mixture was allowed to gradually warm up to room temperature, then quenched with saturated NH4Cl (5 mL) and poured into water (50 mL)/dichloromethane (100 mL). The organic layer was separated; aqueous layer was extracted three times with dichloromethane (50 mL each). Combined organic extract was washed with water (20 mL), dried over anhydrous Na2SO4, concentrated under reduced pressure, and purified by silica gel column chromatography to yield racemic (RS)-1-(2,6-dinitrophenyl)-2-methyl-1-propanol (0.375 g, 30%) as a light yellow oil. 1H NMR (400 MHz, CDCl3): δ 7.82 (d, 2H, J=8.0 Hz, Ph-H), 7.59 (t, 1H, J=8.0 Hz, Ph-H), 4.84 (dd, 1H, J=7.6 and 9.2 Hz, Ph-CH), 2.87 (d, 1 H, J=7.6 Hz, OH), 2.18 (m, 1H, CHCH(CH3)2), 1.12 (d, 3H, J=6.4 Hz, CH3), 0.77 (d, 3H, J=6.8 Hz, CH3); 13C NMR (100 MHz, CDCl3): δ 150.82 (C), 130.62 (C), 129.31 (CH), 127.30 (CH), 74.52 (CH), 34.19 (CH), 19.84 (CH3), 19.14 (CH3).
