Procedure
LiAlH4 (1.20 g, 31.6 mmol) was added to a solution of 1-[1-(benzoylamino) cyclobutyl]propanol (2.64 g, 11.3 mmol) in THF (40 mL) at room temperature. The mixture was stirred at room temperature for 1 hour and refluxed for 30 minutes. The mixture was cooled in an ice-water bath and a few drops of water were added. The mixture was then diluted with ethyl acetate, dried over anhydrous Na2SO4, filtered, and concentrated in vacuo. Flash chromatography (AcOEt) of the residue gave the title compound as a colorless oil (2.25 g, 91%). 1H-NMR (400 MHz, CDCl3) δ 1.21 (3H, d, J=6.1 Hz), 1.63 (1H, dd, J=13.7 and 2.4 Hz), 1.73-1.90 (5H, m), 2.04-2.13 (1H, m), 2.18-2.27 (1H, m), 3.59 (1H, d, J=11.6 Hz), 3.81 (1H, d, J=11.6 Hz), 4.07-4.16 (1H, m), 7.22-7.35 (5H, m).
