Procedure

To a stirred solution of 2-fluoro-6-iodobenzoic acid (10 mmol) in THF (6.5 mL) and trimethylborate (3.25 mL) was added borane dimethylsulfide (12 mmol) slowly, maintaining the internal temperature at 20-25° C. Stirring was continued for an additional 16 h at room temperature and then methanol (1.44 mL) was added cautiously. The resulted solution was evaporated in vacuo to offer 2.5 g of the title compound as a pale yellow oil.
