Procedure

The diol 4 (25 g, 9.2 mmol) was dissolved with a mixed solvent of ethyl acetate (200 ml) and ethanol (100 ml) in a 1 L steel autoclave. The palladium charcoal (5 g) and triethylamine (12 g) were added as well. The reaction mixture was kept at 55° C. under hydrogen pressure (0.8 Mpa) for 4 hours. The reaction was regarded as completed when no hydrogen intake was observed. The catalyst was removed by filtration after cooling down. The filtrate was concentrated by distillation under reduced pressure. The residue was dissolved by addition of DCM and water. The separated aqueous layer was extracted with more DCM (30 ml×3). The combined organic solution was dried and distilled to remove solvent. The residue was dissolved with ethyl acetate (80 ml) and kept at room temperature for 4 hours. The product was collected by filtration and dried under vacuum (18 g, yield 82%).
