実験手順
To a 0° C. solution of 5.0 g of the above ketone in 150 ml. of anhydrous methanol was added excess sodium borohydride and the mixture stirred for one hour. After removal of the solvent, a small quantity of water was added and the mixture was extracted with ethyl acetate. The combined extracts were dried over magnesium sulfate and evaporated to afford 1-[4-hydroxy-4-(4-t-butylphenyl)butyl]imidazole, which was converted to the oxalate salt and recrystallized from ethyl acetate/ethanol, m.p. 205°-207° C.(foaming).
