Reaction Steps

To an ice-cold solution of 3-bromo-4-(4-fluorobenzyloxy)-1-(2-hydroxymethylbenzyl)-1H-pyridin-2-one (Example 72) (0.25 g, 0.56 mmol) in THF (1 mL) was added LiBH4 (2.0 M solution in THF, 0.56 mmol), and the reaction mixture was stirred at 40° C. for 6 hours. The reaction mixture was cooled to room temperature, the solvent was removed under reduced pressure, and the residue was dissolved in EtOAc. The organic solution was washed with brine, dried (MgSO4), filtered, and concentrated under reduced pressure. 1H NMR (300 MHz, DMSO-d6) δ 7.82 (d, J=8 Hz, 1H), 7.54-7.49 (m, 2H), 7.41 (d, J=7 Hz, 1H), 7.29-7.21 (m, 4H), 6.81 (d, J=7 Hz, 1H), 6.53 (d, J=8 Hz, 1H), 5.30-5.25 (m, 3H), 5.18 (s, 2H), 4.60 (d, J=7 Hz, 2H). ESHRMS m/z 418.0437 (M+H C20H18BrFNO3 requires 418.0449)
