Procedure
To an ice cooled solution of 2′,7-dibenzyloxy-4′-(t-butyldimethylsilyloxy)-isoflavone (0.564 g, 1 mmol) in 10 mL of THF was added 1.6 M lithium borohydride solution in THF (3 mmol) dropwise. The reaction mixture was allowed to come to RT gradually and then stirred for ca. 2 hrs. After disappearance of the starting material (TLC) the reaction was quenched with 1N HCl (pH 4). The reaction was further stirred at room temperature followed by refluxing at 60° C. for ca. 2 hours. The reaction mixture was extracted with DCM:water (2×15 mL:15 mL). The organic layers were combined and washed with 1N NaHCO3 (2×15 mL), dried over sodium sulfate and evaporated at 20° C. to obtain an oily residue. The residue was chromatographed over silica using DCM:hexanes (1:1). The organic fractions were evaporated to provide 0.247 g (45%) of white solid: mp 105-107° C.; TLC Rf0.75 in DCM:hexanes (2:1); 1H NMR (400 MHz, DMSO-d6) δ 7.46-7.32 (m, 10H, 2×CH5), 7.22-7.20 (d, 1H, J=8.4 Hz, Ar—H5), 7.03-7.01 (d, 1H, J=8.4 Hz), 6.63 (s, 1H, CH═), 6.58-6.55 (m, 2H, Ar—H3′/H5′), 6.49-6.46 (m, 2H, Ar—H6/8), 5.11 (s, 2H, Ph-CH2), 5.07 (s, 2H, Ph-CH2), 4.89 (s, 2H, OCH2), 0.93 {s, 9H, Si(CH3)3}, 0.17 {s, 6H, Si(CH3)2}; 13C NMR (100 MHz, DMSO-d6) δ 199.6, 159.7, 157.5, 156.8, 154.7, 137.7, 137.5, 129.7, 129.2, 129.1, 128.6, 128.5, 128.4, 128.3, 128.1, 121.5, 121.4, 117.5, 112.8, 108.9, 105.9, 102.8, 70.5, 69.9, 68.3, 26.3, 18.7; analysis calcd. for C35H38O4Si.0.25H2O: C, 75.71; H, 6.99. found: C, 76.0; H, 6.70.
