Reaction Steps

2-Cyano-6-hydroxybenzothiazole (2) (150 mg, 0.85 mmol, 1.1 equiv.) and 4-(hydroxymethyl)benzeneboronic acid (5) (166 mg, 0.77 mmol, 1 equiv.) were dissolved in 15 mL dry dimethylformamide (DMF) prior to the addition of cesium carbonate (277 mg, 0.85 mmol, 1 equiv.). The mixture was stirred at 60° C. for 45-50 minutes before it was allowed to cool to room temperature. 100 mL EtOAc was added to the reaction mixture, and the organic phase was washed three times with DI H2O. The aqueous layers were combined and washed three times with EtOAc. All of the organic layers were combined, washed twice with brine, dried over sodium sulfate, and concentrated. The crude material was purified on a silica column (90:10 EtOAc:methanol, dry loaded) to give 225 mg (94%) of the pure product. 1H NMR (400 MHz, d6-Acetone): δ 5.33 (2H, s), 7.23 (2H, s), 7.45 (1H, dd, J=9.0, 2.6 Hz), 7.52 (2H, d, J=8.0 Hz), 7.93 (3H, m), 8.16 (1H, d, J=8.8 Hz).
