Procedure
To a solution of 7-bromo-benzo[1,3]dioxole-5-carbaldehyde (437 mg, 1.91 mmol) in dry ether (6 mL) was added slowly under argon at −30° C. isopropylmagnesium chloride (1.15 mL, 2.0 M in ether, 2.29 mmol) and the solution stirred for 30 minute. A solution of aqueous ammonium chloride was added and the layers separated. The aqueous layer was extrated with ethyl acetate and the organic combined and washed with water, brine, dried (MgSO4), filtered and evaporated to give 503 mg of 1-(7-bromo-benzo[1,3]dioxol-5-yl)-2-methyl-propan-1-ol.
