Participants
| Role | Name | HCID | Charge |
|---|---|---|---|
| Reactant | Methyl 2-methyl-3-(phenylmethoxy)propanoate | HCID 13531536 | — |
| Reactant | Sodium bis(2-methoxyethoxy)aluminiumhydride | HCID 21584525 | — |
| Product | 3-Benzyloxy-2-methylpropan-1-ol | HCID 562208 | 90.5% |
Reaction Steps
Reduction of the rac.-methyl-3-benzyloxy-2-methylpropionate was carried out with sodium bis(2-methoxyethoxy)-aluminum hydride using the procedure described in Example 9. Distillation of the crude product afforded the rac. 3-benzyloxy-2-methyl-1-propanol in 90.5% yield as a colorless liquid, b.p. 94°-98° C. (0.1 mm Hg.).
