Procedure

A solution of 3-(3-methoxy-3-methylbut-1-yl)-5-methylcyclohexan-1-one (0.50 g, 0.0024 mol) in tetrahydrofuran (1 mL) was added to a suspension of lithium aluminum hydride (0.10 g, 0.0027 mol) in tetrahydrofuran (1 mL) cooled to 0~C. The mixture was stirred at 20~C. for 16 h. Subsequent workup yielded 3-(3-methoxy-3-methylbutyl)-5-methylcyclohexanol (0.40 g) as a mixture of four diastereoisomers (ratio 2.8:15.3:79.2:2.8).
