Reaction Steps

Employing the same general procedure as used for the preparation of 3-(5,5,8,8-tetramethyl-5,6,7,8-tetrahydronaphth-2-yl)but-2(Z)-en-1-ol (Compound C), but instead using 420 mgs (1.25 mmols) ethyl 2-[5,5,8,8-tetramethyl-5,6,7,8-tetrahydronaphth-2-yl]benzoate (Compound H) and 6 mmols of diisobutylaluminiumhydride the title compound was obtained as a white solid.
