Procedure

To a mixed solution of methyl 5-(difluoromethyl)thiophene-2-carboxylate (2.23 g) in tetrahydrofuran (60 ml) and methanol (15 ml) was added sodium borohydride (2.2 g) at room temperature, and the mixture was stirred at 60° C. for 1 hr. The reaction mixture was cooled to room temperature, saturated aqueous ammonium chloride solution was added, and the mixture was extracted with ethyl acetate. The organic layer was washed with saturated brine, dried over anhydrous magnesium sulfate, and concentrated under reduced pressure. The obtained residue was purified by silica gel column chromatography (hexane/ethyl acetate) to give the title compound (1.94 g).
