To a suspension of 3.24 g α-(cyano)-6-fluoro-3,4-dimethoxybenzyl alcohol obtained in Reference Example 1 in 20 ml tetrahydrofuran, was added dropwise 33 ml of 1M solution of borane in tetrahydrofuran with stirring in a methanol/ice bath under an argon gas atmosphere, and the resulting solution was heated under reflux for three hours. After cooling the reaction mixture in an ice bath, methanol was added until gas evolution was no longer observed, the resulting solution was stirred at room temperature for one hour, and hydrogen chloride gas was introduced until the pH fell below 1. The crystals which separated out were collected, affording 3.34 g of α-(aminomethyl)-6-fluoro-3,4-dimethoxybenzyl alcohol hydrochloride, m.p. 223°-226° C.
