Versuchsvorschrift
To a solution of 3-(benzyloxy)-2-methylbenzoic acid (800 mg) in THF (10 mL) was added dropwise a 1.0 M solution of borane-THF complex in THF (6.6 mL) at room temperature over 30 min, and the mixture was stirred at room temperature for 2 hr. Methanol (10 mL) was added to the reaction mixture under ice-cooling, and the solvent was evaporated under reduced pressure. The residue was purified by silica gel column chromatography (ethyl acetate/hexane) to give the title compound (480 mg) as a white solid.
