The reaction was allowed to gradually reach room temperature and stir for 1 hour. Additional portions of sodium borohydride (0.50 g, 13 mmol) were added at 2 hours and 3 hours. The reaction mixture was cooled to 0° C. and the reaction was quenched with water. The layers were separated and the aqueous layer was extracted with three portions of DCM. The combined organic extracts were dried over sodium sulfate, filtered and concentrated. The product was purified by flash chromatography, eluting with a gradient from 0-25% EtOAc in hexanes. Yield: (4.51 g, 51%).
