To 5,6-difluoro-2,2-dimethyl-3H-benzofuran-7-carboxylic acid (735) (0.75 g, 3.29 mmol) was added 1.0 M of borane tetrahydrofuran complex solution (12 mL), and the mixture was stirred at room temperature overnight. The reaction was cooled to 0° C., acidified with 5 N HCl to pH 1, and then neutralized to pH 8 with 5 N NaOH. The mixture was extracted with EtOAc (80 mL×3) and the combined organic phase was washed with water (50 mL), dried over anhydrous sodium sulfate, and the solvent removed in vacuo. The product was purified by prep HPLC to yield (5,6-difluoro-2,2-dimethyl-3H-benzofuran-7-yl)methanol (736) (0.4 g, 57%). 1H NMR (400 MHz, DMSO-d6) δ 7.18 (t, J=9.0 Hz, 1H), 4.38 (s, 2H), 2.97 (s, 2H), 1.40 (s, 6H).
