Methanesulfonyl chloride → N-(4-(4,4,5,5-tetramethyl-1,3,2-dioxaborolan-2-yl)phenyl)methanesulfonamide

Participants

Reaction Steps

To a solution of 4-(4,4,5,5-tetramethyl-[1,3,2]dioxaborolan-2-yl)-phenylamine (5.00 g, 22.8 mmol) in methylene chloride (100 mL) and 4-methylmorpholine (16 mL) at 0° C. was added methanesulfonyl chloride (2.1 mL, 28 mmol). The mixture was stirred at room temperature for 2 hr, and diluted with ethyl acetate. The organic layer was washed with brine, dried over sodium sulfate and concentrated to provide N-[4-(4,4,5,5-tetramethyl-[1,3,2]dioxaborolan-2-yl)-phenyl]-methanesulfonamide as a white solid (6.32 g, 93% yield). MS m/z 298 (M+1).
