Procedure
To an ice-bath cooled flask containing a solution of (2E)-3-(1-oxo-1,3-dihydro-2-benzofuran-5-yl)prop-2-enal (5 g, 26.6 mmol) in THF (20 mL) and methanol (20 mL) was added NaBH4 (1 g, 26.3 mmol), and the mixture was stirred for 1 hour at 0° C. The reaction mixture was then diluted with HCl (2 N, 20 mL) and extracted with EtOAc (300 mL). The organic layer was washed with water (30 mL) and brine (30 mL), dried over Na2SO4, and concentrated in vacuo. The residue was purified with silica gel chromatography (pet ether/EtOAc=2:1) to give the title product.
