Versuchsvorschrift
To a stirring solution of 4-(4-hydroxy-butyl)-benzoic acid methyl ester (2.24 g, 0.01 mol) in THF (100 mL) was added dropwise a solution of lithium aluminum hydride (8.0 mL, 1M in THF). After completion of addition the reaction mixture continued to stir at room temperature. After 6 hours, the reaction mixture was quenched with water. The aqueous layer was extracted with ethyl acetate. All combined organic layers were dried over Na2SO4, filtered, and concentrated to yield 4-(4-hydroxymethyl-phenyl)-butan-1-ol as a yellow oil (1.90 g, 0.01 mol, 98% yield). 1H (CDCl3, 600 MHz): δ 7.29 (2H, d, J=8.1 Hz), 7.16 (2H, d, J=8.1 Hz), 4.60 (2H, s), 3.60 (2H, t, J=7.5 Hz), 2.62 (2H, t, J=7.5 Hz), 1.67 (2H, m), 1.56 (2H, m); 13C (CDCl3, 150 MHz): δ 141.7, 138.5, 128.5, 127.0, 65.0, 62.5, 35.2, 32.1, 27.5.
