Procedure

To an EtOH (500 mL) solution of intermediate (11a) (41.0 g, 61.8 mmol) was added solid NaBH4 (2.8 g, 74.1 mmol). The mixture was stirred at room temperature for 1 hour. After cooling to 0° C., the reaction was quenched by dropwise addition of a 50/50 solution of acetic acid/water until no effervescence was observed. EtOAc (500 mL) was added and the organic was washed three times with saturated aqueous NaCl (100 mL). Solvent was removed and purification was achieved by silica gel chromatography (50:50 EtOAc:hexanes) using an isocratic gradient to provide intermediate (11b) as a white solid (37 g).
