Methyl 2-benzyl-2,3-dihydro-1H-isoindole-5-carboxylate (from above) was dissolved in anhydrous tetrahydrofuran (75 ml) and added dropwise over 15 minutes to a rapidly stirred suspension of lithium aluminium hydride (1.71 g, 45.0 mmol) in anhydrous tetrahydrofuran (75 ml). The mixture was stirred at room temperature for 2 hours whereupon excess lithium aluminium hydride was destroyed by the slow dropwise addition of 1M sodium sulphate solution (12 ml). The solids were removed by filtration, rinsed with ethyl acetate (2×50 ml) and sucked dry. The solvent was removed in vacuo to afford (2-benzyl-2,3-dihydro-1H-isoindol-5-yl)-methanol (7.15 g, 99%) as a tan solid. 1H NMR (DMSO-d6) 7.40-7.30 (4H, m), 7.28 (1H, m), 7.17-7.10 (3H, m), 5.10 (1H, t), 4.47 (2H, d), 3.85 (2H, s), 3.82 (2H, s), 3.80 (2H, s). MS: [M+H]+ 240.
