Procedure
A solution of (A) (14 g) in tetrahydrofuran (50 ml) was added to a solution of lithium aluminum hydride (2 g) in tetrahydrofuran (100 ml) under stirring. The mixture was refluxed for 3 hours and finally hydrolyzed by careful addition of water. After removal of inorganic salts by filtration, the filtrate was concentrated to give (B) as a viscous oil.
