To a solution of 2-chloro-3-hydroxybenzaldehyde (8.10 g, 51.7 mmol) in MeOH was added NaBH4 (1.96 g, 51.7 mmol) at 0° C. The reaction was allowed to stir for 30 minutes. TLC showed clean conversion to a more polar spot. The reaction was diluted with EtOAc (400 mL), washed with water and brine, dried over sodium sulfate, and concentrated. The crude 2-chloro-3-(hydroxymethyl)phenol was used in Step B without further purification.
