Hydrochloric Acid → 4-(2-Hydroxyethyl)phenylboronic acid

To a stirred solution of 4-bromophenethylalcohol (5.00 g, 24.9 mmol) in tetrahydrofuran (80 mL) was added a solution of 1.5 M n-butyl lithium in hexane (39.8 mL, 59.7 mmol) at −78° C. over 30 min. After 1 h, a solution of triisopropyl borate (8.61 mL, 37.3 mmol) in tetrahydrofuran (20 mL) was added slowly to the mixture at −78° C. The resultant mixture was warmed to room temperature, and treated with 2 M HCl (100 mL) for 1 h. This mixture was extracted with dichloromethane and dried (MgSO4). After evaporation in vacuo, the residue was purified by silica-gel column chromatography eluting with dichloromethane/methanol (20:1) to afford 2.61 g (63%) of the title compound as white solids: MS (ESI) m/z 165 [M−H]−, 1H-NMR (CD3OD) δ 7.64-7.48 (2H, m), 7.19-7.13 (2H, m), 3.70 (2H, t, J=7.2 Hz), 2.77 (2H, t, J=7.2 Hz).
