Procedure
A solution of 3-(3-chlorophenyl)-3-hydroxybutanenitrile (400 mg, 2.04 mmol) in dry THF (10 mL) was cooled to 0° C. LiAlH4 powder (155 mg, 2 equiv.) was added. After 5 min, the mixture was warmed to rt and stirred for 4 h. The mixture was then heated to reflux for 6 h. The mixture was diluted with 1 M aq NaOH (30 mL) and extracted with CH2Cl2 (2×100 mL). The combined CH2Cl2 extracts were washed with brine, dried over Na2SO4 and concentrated to afford crude 4-amino-2-(3-chlorophenyl)butan-2-ol (550 mg, quant) which was used without purification. LC-MS Method 1, tR=0.88 min, m/z=200, 202.
