Procedure

To a solution of 4-methoxy-1-(3-methylbut-1-ynyl)-2-nitrobenzene (Compound 134, 2.97 g, 13.6 mmol) in THF (45 ml) and EtOH (15 ml) at 0° C. was added SnCl2 (12.9 g, 68 mmol), followed by NaBH4 (3.1 g, 81.6 mmol) in three equal portions with one hour between each addition. The reaction was stirred at 0° C. for a total of 3.5 h and was quenched with aqueous ammonia, filtered through a pad of Celite, extracted with EtOAc (×3). The combined organic layer was washed with brine, dried over Na2SO4, and concentrated in vacuo. The residue was purified by chromatography on silica gel (0→20% EtOAc-hexanes) to yield the title compound.
