Abstract
The compound 4,4,5,5-tetramethyl-2-(1-(phenylsulfonyl)propan-2-yl)-1,3,2-dioxabo- rolane has been prepared by the rhodium catalyzed hydroboration of allyl phenyl sulfone and characterized by a single crystal X-ray diffraction study. The title compound crystallized in the monoclinic space group P21/c, with cell parameters a=16.0728(8) Å, b=9.8884(5) Å, and c=10.1926(5) Å, β=92.067(1)°, Z=4, and V=1618.90(14) Å3. The structure was solved by direct methods and refined to a final R=0.0449 for 3627 reflections with I>2σ(I). No significant intramolecular or intermolecular interaction is observed with the Lewis acidic boron atom.
