Procedure

Borane-methyl sulfide complex (2M in THF, 17.4 mL) was added dropwise over 10 minutes to a solution of 2-(3-(bromomethyl)-5-fluorophenyl)acetic acid (example 41, step a) (4.3 g) in THF (60 mL) at 0° C. The mixture was stirred at 0° C. for 10 minutes and then at 20° C. for 1 hour. The reaction mixture was quenched by dropwise addition of methanol and the solvents were removed under reduced pressure. The crude product was purified by flash silica chromatography using 30% ethyl acetate in isohexane as solvent. Pure fractions were evaporated to dryness to afford the subtitled compound. Yield 3.7 g.
