Reaktionsschritte

(3-Bromo-phenyl)-phenyl-methanol (from previous step) was dissolved in diethyl ether (10 mL) and the solution was added dropwise to a suspension of lithium aluminum hydride (0.607 g, 16 mmol) and aluminum chloride (2.11 g, 16 mmol) stirring in THF (15 mL). The reaction was heated to 40° C. for 1 hour then cooled to 0° C., quenched with H2O, and submitted to standard aqueous workup. The crude product was purified via silica gel chromatography (0-5% EtOAc in hexanes) to afford the title compound.
