To a stirred suspension of 1-oxo-2,3-dihydro-1H-indene-4-carbonitrile (1.0 equiv, 0.4M) and silica gel (catalytic) in ethanol at 0° C. was added NaBH4 (⅓ equiv). The reaction was allowed to warm up to room temperature and stirred for 2 h. The Solvent was removed under reduced pressure and the product purified by CC in hexane/EtOAc (5:5) to offer 1-hydroxy-2,3-dihydro-1H-indene-4-carbonitrile in 80% yield.
