Procedure
Crude methyl 5-tert-butoxycarbonyl-2-oxopentanoate (1.08 g, 4.7 mmol) and sodium triacetoxyborohydride (1.0 g, 4.7 mmol) were reacted by the same procedure as described in Example 1 for the preparation of methyl 7-tert-butoxycarbonyl-2-hydroxyheptanoate to give the title compound (854 mg, 78%, 2 steps) as a colorless liquid.
