The white solid (6-methoxytetralone oxide, 7.44 g) was collected and dried. A portion of this (6.31 g, 33 mmol) was stirred in dry THF (150 ml) under argon as lithium aluminium hydride (1.80 g, 47 mmol) was added portionwise. This mixture was stirred at reflux for 3 h, cooled, and treated successively with water (1.5 ml), 10% NaOH (1.5 ml) and water (4.5 ml). The solids were filtered off, and the filtrate was evaporated to give an amber oil. This was chromatographed on silica, eluting with ethyl acetate, giving the title compound (2.96 g, 50%).
