Procedure

170 mg of the aldehyde compound was dissolved in 20 ml of ethanol, and 100 mg of sodium borohydride was added. The mixture was stirred at room temperature for 1 hour. Water and ethyl ether were added to the reaction mixture to dilute it, and it was then worked up in a customary manner to give 158 mg (yield 92%) of 3-(3-methyl-2-butenyl)benzyl alcohol.
