Reaktionsschritte

Under nitrogen atmosphere, the intermediate 14 (500 mg; 1.6 mmol) was suspended in dry tetrahydrofurane (20 ml) and LiAlH4 (120 mg; 3.2 mmol) was added at 0° C. The mixture was stirred at room temperature for 18 hours and poured in ethyl acetate (50 ml) at 0° C. and a solution 10% H2SO4 (100 ml) was added dropwise. The mixture was extracted with ethyl acetate (2×100 ml) and the organic layer was removed under reduced pressure giving the intermediate 15 (310 mg; 71%) m.p.=268–270° C.
