Procedure

Under nitrogen, a solution of 1.01 g (2.34 mmol) of 1-[2-(4-fluorophenyl)-4,4-dicarbomethoxycyclopenten-1-yl]-4-(methylsulfonyl)benzene (prepared in Step 8) in 1.5 mL of THF at -78° C. was treated with 11.6 mL (11.6 mmol) of DIBAL (1.0M in THF). The reaction was stirred at ambient temperature for 1.5 hours, quenched with acetone and aqueous NaOH, extracted with ethyl acetate, dried MgSO4), and concentrated in vacuo to give 840 mg of crude 1-[2-(4-fluorophenyl)-4,4-di(hydroxymethyl)cyclopenten-1-yl]-4-(methylsulfonyl)benzene as a colorless oil: NMR (CDCl3) δ 2.82 (d, J=5 Hz, 4H), 3.04 (s, 3H), 3.86 (d, J=5 Hz, 4H), 6.94 (t, J=9 Hz, 2H), 7.11 (dd, J=5 and 9 Hz, 2H), 7.33 (d, J=9 Hz, 2H), 7.77 (d, J=9 Hz, 2H).
