Procedure

To a solution of 3-(methyloxy)-4-{[3-(trifluoromethyl)phenyl]oxy}benzaldehyde (720 mg, 2.430 mmol) in ethanol (20 mL) was added slowly NaBH4(110 mg, 2.92 mmol) at 0° C. The mixture was then allowed to warm to room temperature and stirring continued for 2 h. The reaction was quenched with NH4Cl sat. solution and extracted with EA. The organic layer was separated and concentrated to afford the title compound (715 mg, 2.397 mmol, 99% yield). LCMS: rt=3.12 min, [M+H+−H2O]=281
