Procedure

A mixture of (S)-2-cyclohexylmethyl-succinic acid 1-methyl ester (484 mg, 2.12 mmol) and tetrahydrofuran 10 mL) was stirred at room temperature and then cooled to 0° C. To the reaction mixture was added 1.0 M borane in tetrahydrofuran (4.2 mL) dropwise over 5 min. After 2 h, MeOH was added drop-wise to quench the reaction. The reaction mixture was stirred for 30 min at room temperature and then concentrated to dryness. The crude residue was suspended in MeOH, concentrated to dryness, and purified on SiO2 (40 g) using 5-10% MeOH/DCM as eluent to provide the title compound (0.32 g) as a clear oil: 1H NMR (CDCl3, 400 mHz) δ (ppm): 3.69-3.65 (m, 5H), 2.65 (m, 1H), 1.85-1.59 (m, 8H), 1.32-1.12 (m, 5H), 0.87 (m, 2H).
