Procedure
A solution of (7-methoxy-1-oxo-1,3-dihydro-2-benzofuran-5-yl)acetaldehyde (0.12 g, 0.58 mmol) was treated with sodium borohydride (0.05 g, 1.45 mmol) and methanol (10 mL); the resulting mixture was stirred at room temperature for 1 h. The solution was concentrated to dryness, dissolved in EtOAc and washed with water, dried (Na2SO4), filtered and concentrated in vacuo to give 5-(2-hydroxyethyl)-7-methoxy-2-benzofuran-1(3H)-one. LC/MS: [(M+1)]+=209.
