Procedure
To a mixture of 3-bromo-8-(2,6-dichloro-4-benzoylbenzyloxy)-2-methylimidazo[1,2-a]pyridine (80 mg), sodium borohydride (18.5 mg) and ethanol (2 ml) was stirred at ambient temperature for 1 hour. The reaction mixture was partitioned between dichloromethane and water and the aqueous layer was extracted with dichloromethane twice. The combined organic layers were washed with brine, dried over magnesium sulfate and evaporated in vacuo. The residue was crystallized from diethyl ether to give 3-bromo-8-[2,6-dichloro-4-(α-hydroxybenzyl)benzyloxy]-2-methylimidazo[1,2-a]pyridine (73 mg) as crystals.
