[3-(3-Bromo-phenyl)-cyclobutylidene]-acetic acid ethyl ester (1.96 gm, 6.63 mmol) was suspended in poly(ethylene glycol) (Average MW 400, 40 mL) and sodium borohydride (1.00 g, 26.4 mmol) was added portionwise. The slurry was warmed at 67° C. overnight, then cooled to room temperature and partitioned between 2N hydrochloric acid and diethylether. The ether extracts were dried with sodium sulfate and purified by column chromatography (50% EtOAc/hexanes) to afford 512 mg of an oil (30%). 1H NMR (400 MHz, DMSO-d6) δ ppm 1.19-1.29 (m, 1H) 1.31-1.38 (m, 1H) 1.47-1.52 (m, 1H) 1.59-1.68 (m, 1H) 1.97-2.32 (m, 2H) 2.34-2.41 (m, 1H) 4.22-4.31 (m, 1H) 3.23-3.39 (m, 3H) 7.15-7.24 (m, 2H) 7.29-7.38 (m, 2H); MS (EI) m/z 254 [M+·].
