Reaction Steps

A 100-mL round-bottomed flask equipped with a magnetic stirrer was charged with 150e (2.1 g, 1.0 eq., 6.8 mmol), NaBH4 (1.29 g, 5.0 eq., 34.0 mmol), and methanol (50 mL). The mixture was stirred at room temperature for 2 h and quenched with water (30 mL). It was then concentrated under reduced pressure and the residue was extracted with dichloromethane (3×50 mL). The combined organic layer was concentrated under reduced pressure to afford crude 150f, which was used in the next step without further purification. MS-ESI: [M+H]+ 311.9
