Procedure
To a solution consisting of 2-amino-1-(4-fluoro-phenyl)-ethanone (150 mg, 0.9 mmol) and MeOH (5 mL) was added NaBH4 (97 mg, 2.6 mmol). The mixture was stirred at rt for 45 min and then concentrated to dryness. The residue was diluted with EtOAc and washed with a satd. NH4Cl solution before drying (Na2SO4), and concentrating to give 2-amino-1-(4-fluoro-phenyl)-ethanol (139 mg, 100%) which was used without further purification.
