To a solution of 4'-isobutylhexanophenone (10.5 g) in 2-propanol (60 ml) was added sodium borohydride (2.05 g), and the mixture was stirred at 50° C. for 6 hours. The mixture was poured into ice water and acidified with 6N hydrochloric acid. The aqueous solution was extracted with ethyl acetate and the combined organic layer was washed with water and brine, dried over magnesium sulfate and evaporated to give 1-(4-isobutylphenyl)hexan-1-ol (9.32 g) as a colorless oil.
