Participants

Reaction Steps

Combine 3,3-dimethyl-1,5-dioxa-spiro[5.5]undecan-9-one (Aldrich, 750 mg, 3.78 mmol) with polymer-supported borohydride (Aldrich, 3026 mg, 7.56 mmol) in methanol (30 mL). Shake by rotation the resulting mixture overnight. Filter the reaction mixture and concentrate the filtrate. Wash the residue with hydrochloric acid 0.1M and extract with EtOAc.
