Reaction Steps

Dissolve B-(2-(trimethylsilyl)ethynyl)-9-borabicyclo[3.3.1]nonane.tetrahydrofuran complex (2.63 g, 9 mmol) in tetrahydrofuran (30 mL) and add 2- octanone (1.41 mL), 9 mmol). Stir at 65° C. for 48 hours. Cool to room temperature and remove the solvent under a positive nitrogen pressure to give a yellow solid. Add ethyl ether (30 mL) and methanol (365 μL, 9 mmol). Cool to 0° C. and add, by dropwise addition, ethanolamine (543 μL, 9 mmol). Stir overnight, centrifuge the reaction mixture and separate the clear supernatnat liquid. Wash the precipitate with pentane (2×10 mL) and combine the organic phases. Wash with water (2×25 mL) and dry (MgSO4). Evaporate the solvent in vacuo and purify by silica gel chromatography (20:5:1/hexane, chloroform, methanol) to give the title compound as a pale yellow liquid (1.45 g, 71%).
