Participants

Reaction Steps

0.02 mole of the product obtained in Example 2 is added in small portions at room temperature to a suspension of 0.05 mole of lithium aluminium hydride in 100 ml of anhydrous THF. Stirring is maintained for 1 hour at room temperature, the mixture is cooled and the excess hydride destroyed by adding water, the solid is allowed to drain and the filtrate is evaporated under vacuum on a water bath. The oily residue is then crystallized in ether and recrystallized in a methanol/ether mixture. (M.p. 188°-90° C.). Yield: 30%.
