The starting material is prepared as follows: The solution of 14.2 g of 2-(2,3-dihydrobenzofuran-2-yl)-acetic acid [Gazz. Chim. Ital. 93, 52 (1963)] in 100 ml of tetrahydrofuran is added dropwise to the suspension of 4.55 g of lithium aluminum hydride in 200 ml of tetrahydrofuran while stirring. The mixture is refluxed for 18 hours, then cooled in an ice-bath and decomposed by adding 4.5 ml of water, 4.5 ml 15% aqueous sodium hydroxide and 14.6 ml of water. It is filtered, evaporated and the residue taken up in ethyl acetate. The solution is washed with aqueous sodium bicarbonate, water and saturated aqueous sodium chloride, dried, evaporated and the residue distilled in a kugelrohr at 140°/0.1 mmHg, to yield the 2-(2-hydroxyethyl)-2,3-dihydrobenzofuran.
