Reaction Steps

Sodium borohydride (825 mg) was added to a solution of 4-[2-(2-furyl)-5-methyl-4-oxazolylmethoxy]-3-methoxybenzaldehyde (6.84 g) in tetrahydrofuran (50 ml)-methanol (50 ml) at 0° C. After stirring for 1 hour, the reaction mixture was poured into water to give 4-[2-(2-furyl)-5-methyl-4-oxazolylmethoxy]-3-methoxybenzyl alcohol (6.98 g, yield 92%) as crystals.
