CAS 1195-66-0: 2-Methoxy-4,4,5,5-tetramethyl-1,3,2-dioxaborolane

It is employed in the synthesis, optical, and electrochemical properties of novel copolymers on the basis of benzothiadiazole and electron-rich arene units. This Thermo Scientific Chemicals brand product was originally part of the Alfa Aesar product portfolio. Some documentation and label information may refer to the legacy brand. The original Alfa Aesar product / item code or SKU reference has not changed as a part of the brand transition to Thermo Scientific Chemicals.

2-Methoxy-4,4,5,5-tetramethyl-1,3,2-dioxaborolane is a Grignard reagent that is used in organic synthesis. It can be synthesized by the reaction of magnesium and carbon chains with an alkaline hydrolysis. The hydrazone product obtained from this reaction can be converted to pyridine compounds in high yield with catalytic amounts of pyridine. 2-Methoxy-4,4,5,5-tetramethyl-1,3,2-dioxaborolane has been shown to have antiinflammatory properties. This may be due to its ability to inhibit prostaglandin synthesis by inhibiting cyclooxygenase and lipoxygenase activity.
