Procedure

In an atmosphere of nitrogen, sodium borohydride was added to a methanol solution of 4-{[2′,6′-dimethyl-4′-(2-oxopropoxy)biphenyl-3-yl]methoxy}benzaldehyde under ice-cooling, followed by stirring at room temperature for 2 hours to obtain 1-[(-3′-{[4-(hydroxymethyl)phenoxy]methyl}-2,6-dimethylbiphenyl-4-yl)oxy]propan-2-ol. By adding chloroform and manganese dioxide to the resulting compound and stirring at 60° C. for 5 hours, 4-{[4′-(2-hydroxypropoxy)-2′,6′-dimethylbiphenyl-3-yl]methoxy}benzaldehyde was obtained.
