Sodium borohydride (33.0 mmol) was added in portions to the suspension and stirred for 1 h at the same temperature. The resulting solution was then stirred at room temperature overnight. The reaction mixture was evaporated to dryness and the residue was dissolved in ice-water and neutralized with HCl. The solution was then extracted with chloroform and the organic layer was washed successively with water, 10% NaHCO3 solution in water and brine. The organic layer was dried over anhydrous Na2SO4, filtered and evaporated to dryness to provide pure 3,4-Dibenzyloxybenzyl alcohol (28) in 97.5% yield.
