Procedure
3-(3-Hydroxy-1,3-dihydro-furo[3,4-c]pyridin-1-yl)-benzonitrile (110 mg) was dissolved in ethanol (5 mL) and then treated with sodium borohydride (51 mg). The reaction mixture was stirred for 1 hour, diluted with ethyl acetate and washed with brine. The organic layer was dried over sodium sulfate, concentrated, and the residue purified by flash chromatography to yield 3-[hydroxy-(3-hydroxymethyl-pyridin-4-yl)-methyl]-benzonitrile as a colorless foam.
