Lithium aluminium hydride (1.52 g, 40.0 mmol, 2.0 eq.) was suspended in dry THF (80 mL) under an argon atmosphere. A solution of 15-pentadecanolide (4.80 g, 20.0 mmol) in dry THF (200 mL) was added at 0° C. Stirring was continued at this temperature for 1 h and for 3 more hours at r.t. Potassium sodium tartrate solution (20%, 50 mL) was added dropwise to the stirred reaction mixture. The phases were separated and the aqueous phase was extracted with diethyl ether (3×100 ml). The combined organic layers were dried over MgSO4. The solvent was removed in vacuo and the product was isolated as a white solid, which was used for the next step without purification. Yield: 4.68 g (96%).
