Procedure

The title compound of Example 2 (5.0 g, 13 mmol) was dissolved in THF (75 mL) and added dropwise over 20 minutes to a suspension of sodium borohydride (513 mg, 13 mmol) in 75 mL of ethanol at 0° C. and the reaction mixture was stirred for 3 hours at 0° C. The reaction mixture was poured onto ice-water (500 mL) and extracted twice with diethyl ether (700 mL). The organic extracts were combined and washed with water (250 mL), brine (250 mL) and dried (MgSO4). The solvent was removed in vacuo and the residue was recrystallized from hexane to afford 4.4 g (92%) of the racemic title compound. mp 82-83° C. 1HNMR (60 MHz, CDCl3): δ2.0 (m, 2H), 2.2 (s, 3H), 2.5 (t, J=6 Hz, 2H), 4.6 (m, 1H), 4.7 (broad s, 1H, hydroxyl proton), 7.1-7.5 (m, 7H), 7.8-8.0 (m, 2H).
