In 27 mL of tetrahydrofuran is dissolved 2.70 g of 2-(2-benzo[b]thiophen-5-ylethoxy)-acetic acid. At an ice-cooled temperature, 0.65 g of sodium boron hydride is added to the solution, and stirred at the same temperature as above for 10 minutes. Then, at an ice-cooled temperature, 3.24 g of boron trifluoride diethyl ether complex is added to the reaction mixture over a period of 20 minutes, and the resulting mixture is stirred at the same temperature as above for 30 minutes and then at ambient temperature for 2 hours. The reaction mixture is introduced into a mixture of ethyl acetate and water, pH is adjusted to 1.0 with 2 mol/L hydrochloric acid, and the organic layer is separated. The organic layer is washed with water and saturated aqueous solution of sodium chloride successively and dried over anhydrous magnesium sulfate, the solvent is distilled off under reduced pressure, and the residue is purified by column chromatography (eluent: n-hexane:ethyl acetate=3:1 to 2:1) to obtain 2.34 g of 2-(2-benzo[b]thiophen-5-ylethoxy)-1-ethanol as an oily product.
