Procedure

To a solution of acid 1 (3.0 g, 12.4 mmol) in THF (50 mL) were added borane dimethylsulfide complex (10M in THF, 3.2 mL, 31.1 mmol) at 0° C. The mixture was stirred at 0° C. for 15 min, at room temperature for 45 min, and at 65° C. for 2 hours. The reaction mixture was cooled to 0° C. To the mixture were added MeOH (30 mL), H2O (250 mL) dropwise at 0° C. The mixture was extracted with EtOAc (100 mL). The organic layer was dried over MgSO4, filtered, and concentrated in vacuo to obtain the title compound 31 (2.8 g, 99%). The crude alcohol 31 was carried on to the next step without further purification.
