[F:1][C:2]1[CH:3]=[C:4]2[C:8](=[CH:9][CH:10]=1)[C:7](=[O:11])[CH2:6][CH2:5]2.CO.[BH4-].[Na+]>ClCCl>[F:1][C:2]1[CH:3]=[C:4]2[C:8](=[CH:9][CH:10]=1)[CH:7]([OH:11])[CH2:6][CH2:5]2Charged 5-fluoro-2,3-dihydroinden-1-one (486 mg, 3.22 mmol), methanol (8 mL) and dichloromethane (4 mL) to a flask, the mixture was cooled to 0° C. and NaBH4 (119 mg, 3.22 mmol) was added in portions. The reaction mixture was stirred at 0° C. for 15 min, warmed up to room temperature and stirred for 30 min. Added water, extracted with ethyl acetate twice, and washed the organic phase with brine and dried with anhydrous Na2SO4, concentrated to give the title compound (488 mg, 100%). 1H NMR (400 MHz, CDCl3): δ 1.94-2.02 (1H, m), 2.46-2.55 (1H, m), 2.76-7.84 (1H, m), 3.01-3.08 (1H, m), 5.20 (2H, t, J=5.6 Hz), 6.89-6.93 (2H, m), 7.32-7.36 (1H, m).
