Ethyl acetoacetate (7.5 g) and dry methanol (25 mL) were mixed and deoxygenated with flowing nitrogen for five minutes. The catalyst [(R)—Ru(BINAP)Cl2]2NEt3 (0.1 mol %) was added along with 2N HCl (0.1 mol %). The mixture was transferred to a standard Parr reactor apparatus and flushed by evacuating and refilling with hydrogen several times. The apparatus was heated at 50° C. with stirring under 100 psi of hydrogen for 16 h. After completion of reaction (monitored by TLC) the reaction was cooled and concentrated under reduced pressure. The residue was subjected to column chromatographic purification with petroleum ether/ethyl acetate (9:1 v/v) to get pure (R)-alcohol 43 as a colorless liquid.
