Procedure
To a cooled (0° C.) solution of 7-bromo-3,3-dimethyl-chroman-4-one (1.5 g, 5.91 mmol) in methanol (17 mL) was added potassium borohydride (0.351 g, 6.5 mmol). After completion of addition the reaction stirred at room temperature for 2 hours and was then quenched with 2M HCl (aq.). The aqueous layer was extracted with ethyl acetate (3×) The combined organic layers were dried over sodium sulfate, filtered, and concentrated to yield an off-white solid, which was used in the next step without further purification.
