Procedure
A solution of the 1,2 -dimethyl compound obtained in Step 1. above (43.8 g) in anhydrous THF (640 ml) is added dropwise to a suspension of LAH (7.6 g) in anhydrous THF (200 ml). The reaction mixture is heated to reflux for 45 minutes, cooled and quenched with water, aqueous NaOH (15%), and water. The reaction mixture is filtered, evaporated in vacuo and chromatographed (silica gel: ethyl acetate/hexane) and the major fractions combined, and evaporated yielding the desired product as an oil which is identified by NMR. The oil is dissolved in methanolic hydrochloric acid, the methanolic solution evaporated and the residue recrystallized (acetonitrile/ether), M.P.=179°-181° C.
