THF (50 ml) was added dropwise at 0° C. The mixture was stirred for 1 hour at 0° C., and water (0.4 ml), 15% aqueous solution of sodium hydroxide (0.4 ml) and water (1.2 ml) were added dropwise to the mixture. The mixture was stirred at room temperature for 18 hours, magnesium sulfate was added to the mixture, and the precipitates were removed by filtration. The solvent was concentrated under reduced pressure, and the precipitated crystals were collected by filtration. The crystals were washed with diisopropyl ether, to give 5,6,7,8-tetrahydroimidazo[1,2-a]pyridine-3-methanol (1.24 g) as colorless crystals.
