Reaction Steps

While under a nitrogen atmosphere, a solution of 2-(4-bromobutyl)-4,4,5,5-tetramethyl-1,3,2-dioxaborolane (46.2 g, 0.176 mol, 1.0 equiv) and sodium iodide (52.8 g, 0.35 mol, 2 equiv) in acetone (176 mL, 1.0 M) was heated to 50° C. for 4 h. After cooling to room temperature the solution was concentrated under reduced pressure. The resulting residue was diluted with heptane (200 mL) and filtered through a short pad of silica gel (300 g) wetted with heptane. After eluting with a solution of 10% ethyl acetate in heptane (500 mL) the filtrate was concentrated to give 2-(4-iodobutyl)-4,4,5,5-tetramethyl-1,3,2-dioxaborolane as a colorless oil (53.5 g, 98%). 1H NMR (CDCl3, 300 MHz) δ 3.18 (t, J=7.2 Hz, 2H), 1.90-1.78 (m, 2H), 1.58-1.44 (m, 2H), 1.24 (s, 12H), 0.79 (t, J=7.5 Hz, 2H); ESI-LCMS m/z calcd for C10H20BIO2: expected 310.1. found 311.1 (M+H)+.
