The reaction mixture was washed with a saturated aqueous sodium hydrogencarbonate solution and a saturated aqueous sodium chloride solution, and dried over anhydrous sodium sulfate. The solvent was removed under reduced pressure to give a brawn solution. This product was dissolved in THF (500 ml) and the solution was gradually dropped to a mixture of lithium aluminum hydride (19.22 g) and THF (750 ml) under ice cooling. Two hours later, thereto was added a 10% aqueous sodium hydroxide solution (1000 ml). After the removal of insoluble materials, the filtrate was extracted with ethyl acetate. The organic layer was washed with water (twice) and was dried over anhydrous sodium sulfate. The solvent was removed under reduced pressure to give [5-(2-methyl-1,3-dioxolan-2-yl)thien-2-yl]methanol. This product was used in the next step without purification.
