Procedure
To a solution of 4-[4-bromo-3-(2-tetrahydropyranyloxymethyl)phenoxy]-3-formylbenzonitrile obtained in Example 19w (D23) (14.6 g, 34.9 mmol) in methanol (100 mL) was added sodium borohydride (664 mg g, 17.5 mmol) portionwise at 0° C., and the mixture was stirred at room temperature for 1 h. The solvent was removed under reduced pressure to a half volume, and the mixture was poured into ethyl acetate/water. The organic layer was washed with brine and dried on anhydrous sodium sulfate. The solvent was removed under reduced pressure to give 4-[4-bromo-3-(2-tetrahydropyranyloxymethyl)phenoxy]-3-(hydroxymethyl)benzonitrile (14.6 g, 100%).
