  • Patent number: 8513465
    Abstract: Provided are a production method for a potassium organotrifluoroborate compound having a hydroxyl group, and a novel potassium organotrifluoroborate compound having a hydroxyl group. The production method is advantageous in that a potassium organotrifluoroborate compound can be produced in a single reaction without recourse to a process of isolating and purifying an intermediate. The novel potassium organotrifluoroborate compound having a hydroxyl group is useful as a reactant which is widely used in the total synthesis of physiologically active natural products and diverse organic synthesis reactions including halogen substitution reactions, 1,2- and 1,4-addition reactions using a rhodium (Rh) catalyst, and Suzuki coupling reactions using a palladium (Pd) catalyst.

  • Publication number: 20090264660
    Abstract: An alkyl aryl sulfide of Chemical Formula (III) is prepared by substituting an aryl halogen compound of Chemical Formula (I) with an alkyl lithium organometallic reagent. The sulfide is subsequently reacted with a compound of Chemical Formula (II). Alternatively an aryl halogen compound of Chemical Formula (I) is reacted with Grignard reagent to protect the hydrogen-donating substituent, and then reacted with an alkyl lithium organometallic reagent, and subsequently with sulfur and a compound of Chemical Formula (II). An alkyl aryl sulfide of Chemical Formula (III) is prepared via a one-step reaction without separation or purification of an intermediate compound from various aryl halogen compounds.
