Procedure

Borane dimethyl sulfide complex (2M in THF, 26.3 mL) was added dropwise over 10 minutes to a solution of 2-(3-(bromomethyl)-5-fluorophenyl)acetic acid [Aromatic Intermediate 4, step a] (6.5 g) in THF (120 mL) at 0° C. The mixture was stirred at 0° C. for 10 minutes and then at 20° C. for 1 hour. The reaction mixture was quenched by dropwise addition of methanol and the solvents were removed under reduced pressure. The crude product was purified by flash silica chromatography using 30% ethyl acetate in isohexane. Fractions containing the product were concentrated to dryness to afford the titled compound. Yield 4.70 g.
