Sodium sulfate decahydrate → tert-Butyl [4-(hydroxymethyl)benzyl]carbamate

Participants

Reaction Steps

Lithium aluminum hydride (5.21 g) was suspended in THF (243 ml). Then, a solution of the compound (24.3 g) obtained in Example 103-1 in THF (243 ml) was gradually added to the suspension over 50 minutes while stirring under ice-cooling, followed by stirring at room temperature for 1 hour. The reaction solution was added with sodium sulfate decahydrate and a 20% sodium hydroxide aqueous solution and then filtrated through Celite. The filtrate was concentrated under reduced pressure and dried under vacuum, thereby obtaining the subject compound (18.5 g).
