Reaction Steps

Into a 25-mL round-bottom flask purged and maintained with an inert atmosphere of nitrogen, was placed 3-ethyl-5-(2-fluoro-4-methylphenyl)-1,2-thiazole-4-carboxylic acid (150 mg, 0.57 mmol, 1.00 equiv), tetrahydrofuran (10 mL). This was followed by the addition of BH3 (1.7 mL) at 0-5° C. The resulting solution was stirred overnight at 20° C. The resulting mixture was concentrated under vacuum. The residue was applied onto a silica gel column with ethyl acetate/petroleum ether (1:2). This resulted in 50 mg (35%) of [3-ethyl-5-(2-fluoro-4-methylphenyl)-1,2-thiazol-4-yl]methanol as colorless oil.
