Procedure
3,3-Dimethyl-3,4-dihydro-2H-benzo[b][1,4]dioxepine-7-carboxylic acid ethyl ester (30) (9.00 g) is dissolved in THF (150 ml) and a 1.5 M solution of diisobutylaluminium hydride in toluene (120 ml) is slowly added. The resulting reaction mixture is stirred 1 h at RT, then cooled to −30° C. and H2O (120 ml) is cautiously added. After letting the temperature rise to RT a 20% aq. HCl solution (100 ml) is added. The ether layer is collected, washed with H2O and dried over Na2SO4 and the solvent is evaporated. Flash chromatography (silica gel, hexane/AcOEt 4:1) yields 7.25 g of (3,3-dimethyl-3,4-dihydro-2H-benzo[b][1,4]dioxepin-7-yl)-methanol (31), MS (ESI) 208.1 (M•)+.
