2,2,6-Trimethyl-heptanoic acid methyl ester (1.97 g, 10.6 mmol) was taken up in toluene (65 mL) and cooled to −78° C. DiBALH (12.7 mL of a 1 N solution in toluene) was added dropwise. After 45 min, 1.5 mL DiBALH was added. After 2 h, the reaction was quenched by the addition of 15 mL MeOH at −78° C. The mixture was warmed to ambient temperature, and then cooled again to −78° C. for the addition of 10 mL 1 N HCl. The mixture was extracted with EtOAc (3×15 mL). The combined organics were washed with brine, dried (MgSO4), filtered and concentrated. The residual oil was purified via silica gel chromatography (95/5 Hexane/EtOAc) to give 2,2,6-Trimethyl-heptan-1-ol (0.88 g). m/z 159 (M+).
