Reaction Steps

To 26.3 (1.61 g, 4.47 mmol) in THF (10 mL) at 0° C., was added LAH (1.0M solution in THF, 6.70 mL, 6.70 mmol). The reaction was stirred for one hour and then carefully diluted with water, extracted with EtOAc, washed with brine, dried over sodium sulfate, filtered, and concentrated to provide 26.4 (0.990 g, 66.7% yield).
