To a suspension of 2,6-dinitrobenzaldehyde (19.6 g, 0.1 mole) in methanol (200 ml), sodium borohydride (5.8 g) was added in a small portion at 15°-25° C., the resultant mixture was stirred at room temperature for 1 hour and then concentrated. To the residue, H2O (100 ml) and chloroform (100 ml) were added. After stirring for 1 hour, the chloroform layer was separated, washed with H2O, dried over anhydrous MgSO4 and evaporated to afford 15.0 g of 2,6-dinitrobenzyl alcohol as yellow crystals, mp. 92.5°-93.5° C.
