(S)-2-Hydroxymethyl-morpholine-4-carboxylic acid tert-butyl ester (Intermediate 8; 1.20 g, 5.52 mmol) in THF (5 mL) was added to a suspension of LiAlH4 (1.30 g, 34.3 mmol) in anhydrous THF (15 mL) at −10° C. and stirred under nitrogen for 15 min. The cooling bath was removed and the reaction mixture was gently heated to reflux for 4 h. The reaction mixture was quenched by careful addition of a mixture of water (4 mL) in THF (25 mL) with ice bath cooling. THF (50 mL) was added to the reaction mixture, stirred for 15 min, filtered and the solid washed with THF (50 mL). The combined filtrates were evaporated in vacuo. The residue was dissolved in DCM (50 mL), dried (MgSO4) and the solvent removed in vacuo to give (S)-(4-methylmorpholin-2-yl)-methanol (490 mg, 67%) as a colourless oil.
