Procedure
To a suspension of sodium borohydride (0.55 g, 0.015 mole) in dry THF (50 ml) at 0° C., under an argon atmosphere, was added boron trifluoride etherate (2.4 ml, 0.02 mole) dropwise. After addition was completed the mixture was left to stir for 1 hour at room temperature and then a solution of 2-cyanomethoxy-4-nitroanisole (D8 1.0 g, 0,0048 mole) in dry THF (50 ml) was added and the mixture heated under reflux for 1 hour. The mixture was treated with saturated aqueous NaHCO3 solution until effervescence had ceased and then concentrated in vacuo. The residue was treated with water and extracted with dichloromethane. The combined organic extracts were dried and concentrated in vacuo to give the title compound (1.0 g, 100%).
