The mixture is stirred at r.t. for 18 h and filtered through celite. The filtrate is concentrated under reduced pressure and the residue is diluted with AcOEt. Et3N-hydrochloride is filtered off and the filtrate is concentrated under reduced pressure in an azeotropic manner using toluene to give crude imine. To a solution of the crude imine in 500 ml of THF and 500 ml of MeOH, 18 g (475 mmol) of NaBH4 is added portionwise at −20˜−10° C. and the mixture is stirred for 1 h. The reaction mixture is slowly quenched with sat. aqueous NH4Cl and then extracted with CH2Cl2. The combined extracts are washed with H2O, brine, dried over MgSO4 and concentrated under reduced pressure. The residue is purified by CC on silica gel (n-Hexane:AcOEt=5:1˜1:1) to provide the title compound as pale yellow oil.
