Versuchsvorschrift
Step A To a solution of 3-methyl-3-phenylbutanoic acid (ChemBridge) (4.46 g, 25 mmol) in anhydrous tetrahydrofuran (150 mL) at 0° C. was added a tetrahydrofuran solution (1 M) of BH3.THF (Aldrich, 50 mL, 50 mmol) under nitrogen. The reaction mixture was stirred at room temperature for 3 h, then concentrated. The residue was partitioned between ethyl acetate and water. The organic layer were separated, washed with water, aqueous HCl solution, brine, dried over MgSO4, and concentrated to give 3-methyl-3-phenyl-butan-1-ol as a colorless oil (4.1 g, 100%).
