16.6 g of (±)-2-propionyl-2-azabicyclo[2.2.1]-hept-5-en-3-one were dissolved in water (140 ml) and 2-butanol (66 ml) under nitrogen and cooled to -5° C. 3 g of sodium borohydride were added in portions over the course of 2 h. The mixture was stirred at 10° C. for 2.5 h and then adjusted to pH 2.2 with a mixture of conc. hydrochloric acid and water (1/1). The solution was evaporated to 40 g and adjusted to pH 6.2 with 2N NaOH. The mixture was extracted with 5×50 ml of dichloromethane. The combined organic phases were completely evaporated, and the residue was recrystallized in toluene (150 ml). 11.1 g of title compound were obtained. The yield was 65%.
