Procedure

To a solution of 8-[(4-bromophenyl)methyl]-2-methyl-7-oxo-5,6,7,8-tetrahydropyrido[2,3-d]pyrimidine-4-carbaldehyde (550 mg, 1.53 mmol) in tetrahydrofuran (5 mL) and isopropanol (2 mL) was added sodium borohydride (116 mg, 3.05 mmol). After 45 min, the mixture was cooled to 0° C. and CO2 was bubbled in for 5 min. The mixture was filtered and the filtrate was concentrated to give 677 mg of a yellow foam. Purification by flash chromatography (5% MeOH/CH2Cl2) gave 496 mg (90%) of product as an off-white solid, mp 159°-160° C.
