Reaction Conditions

Reaction Steps

To a cooled solution of 66.53A (0.4142 g, 1.056 mmol) in dry THF (7.8 mL) at 0° C. was added LAH (1.0 M in THF) (2.2 mL, 2.200 mmol) dropwise. Upon complete addition, the reaction was maintained at 0° C. and was monitored by TLC and LCMS. After 45 minutes, 1N NaOH was added to quench the reaction (gas evolution occurred). The resulting solution was extracted three times with EtOAc. After drying over anhydrous magnesium sulfate, filtration, and concentration, the residue was purified by flash chromatography (SiO2 gel 60, eluted with 0%-100% EtOAc in hexanes). Fractions containing the desired product were combined and concentrated to afford 66.53B as a colorless oil (257.4 mg, 67% yield). 1H NMR (400 MHz, CDCl3) δ ppm 7.61 (2H, m), 7.40 (2H, m), 7.17 (1H, t, J=8.8 Hz), 5.52 (1H, m), 4.77 (2H, s), 2.24 (2H, td, J=7.0, 2.3 Hz), 1.71 (3H, m), 0.84 (6H, s).
