Reaktionsschritte

To a solution of 5-chloro-2-{2-[4-(4-fluoro-benzyl)-(2R,5S)-2,5-dimethyl-piperazin-1-yl]-2-oxo-ethoxy}-benzaldehyde (0.99 g, 2.36 mmol) in dry methanol (25 mL) was added sodium borohydride (0.19 g, 4.92 mmol). After 1 hour the reaction was acidified to pH 2 by the addition of 1N hydrochloric acid. After 5 minutes the reaction was neutralized with 1N sodium hydroxide and the methanol removed by evaporation. The resulting aqueous suspension was extracted with ethyl acetate. The organic layer was washed with brine, dried over magnesium sulfate, filtered and evaporated to give the title compound (0.98 g).
