Participants

Reaction Steps

A solution of trimethylsilylacetylene (0.51 mL) in THF (4 mL) was cooled to −78° C. under argon, and then a solution of n-BuLi in n-hexane (1.6 M, 2.25 mL, 3.6 mmol) was added via syringe. The resulting mixture was stirred at the same temperature for 15 min, then trimethylborate (0.4 mL, 3.6 mmol) was added. The cooling bath was removed, and the mixture was stirred at room temperature for 15 min to give a solution of the title compound.
