Practical synthesis and applications of benzoboroxoles
摘要:
A convenient one-pot synthesis of benzoboroxoles has been developed via the reaction of o-bromobenzyl alcohols with NaH, (BuLi)-Bu-n, and B((OPr)-Pr-i)(3) followed by acidic hydrolysis. Applications of these benzoboroxoles have been demonstrated in Pd-catalyzed cross-coupling reactions and the protocol has been extended for the synthesis of a chiral benzoboroxole. Exceptionally short synthesis of a potent antifungal agent AN2690 and several of its analogs has also been realized. (C) 2007 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.
