Reaction Steps

87.5 ml of a solution of diisobutylaluminum hydride (DiBAlH) is added at 0° C. to a solution of methyl 2-heptyloxy-4-iodobenzene (14 g, 43.7 mmol) previously obtained, in toluene (450 ml). The solution is stirred for 2 hours at 0° C., and then a saturated solution of mixed tartrate of sodium and potassium is added.
