2-Fluoro-5-methylphenyl isocyanate → 1-(2-Fluoro-5-methylphenyl)-3-(4-(4,4,5,5-tetramethyl-1,3,2-dioxaborolan-2-yl)phenyl)urea

Participants

Reaction Steps

A 0° C. mixture of 4-(4,4,5,5-tetramethyl-1,3,2-dioxaborolan-2-yl)aniline (0.5 g, 2.28 mmol) and 1-fluoro-2-isocyanato-4-methylbenzene (0.297 mL, 2.28 mmol) in dichloromethane (15 mL) was allowed to gradually warm to room temperature and stirred overnight. The resulting suspension was diluted with hexanes resulting in the formation of more precipitate, which was collected by filtration to provide 0.68 g of the desired product. MS (ESI(+)) m/e 370.7 (M+H)+.
