Reaction Steps

Into a 25-mL round-bottom flask, was placed 5-(2-fluoro-4-methylphenyl)-3-methyl-1,2-thiazole-4-carboxylic acid (180 mg, 0.72 mmol, 1.00 equiv), tetrahydrofuran (10 mL). This was followed by the addition of BH3 (2.1 mL) at 0-5° C. The resulting solution was stirred overnight at room temperature. The resulting mixture was concentrated under vacuum. The residue was applied onto a silica gel column with ethyl acetate/petroleum ether (1:3). This resulted in 100 mg (59%) of [5-(2-fluoro-4-methylphenyl)-3-methyl-1,2-thiazol-4-yl]methanol as a white solid.
