Reaction Steps

In 50 ml. anhydrous ethyl ether, 0.5 g. (1.5 m mol) of methyl 2-[4-(6-fluoro-2-quinoxalyloxy)phenoxy]propionate was dissolved and 10 ml. of a solution containing 0.11 g. (3.0 m mol) of LiAlH4 in anhydrous ethyl ether was added dropwise and the mixture was refluxed for 12 hours. After the reaction, 10 ml. of water and 7 ml. of 2N-H2SO4 were added to the reaction mixture and the organic layer was separated and washed with water and dehydrated over anhydrous sodium sulfate and the solvent was distilled off to obtain viscous liquid. This viscous liquid was crystallized and the crystal was washed with n-hexane to obtain 0.25 g. of the object compound (yield of 54%).
