58. Attempted one-pot amination of the simplest tertiary boronic ester 2aa according to Ref. [6e] gave the desired amine but only in moderate yield (50a%), whereas subjecting the trifluoroborate salt 3aa to Matteson's original protocol afforded amine 5aaa in considerably higher yield (74a%). Furthermore, any trifluoroborate salt is readily available from the respective pinacolboronic ester in essentially quantitative yield:, V. Bagutski, A. Ros, V. K. Aggarwal, Tetrahedron 2009, 65, 9956-9960.
59. Toluene was the original solvent but we have found 1,2-dichloroethane to be the solvent of choice. For the use of DCE in aminations of dichloroboranes see also:, H. C. Brown, A. M. Salunkhe, B. Singaram, J. Org. Chem. 1991, 56, 1170-1175.
