Reaction Steps

A solution of 70 mg (0.15 mmol) of N-[2-chloro-4-(2,2,2-trifluoro-1-hydroxy-1-trifluoromethyl-ethyl)-phenyl]-N-ethyl-3-phenyl-propionamide in 3 mL of THF was treated with 1 mL of 1M BH3.THF-complex in THF and stirred for 10 hours at 80° C. in a sealed tube. Evaporation of the solvent and column chromatography on silica gel with CH2Cl2/n-heptane 1:1 yielded 60 mg (91%) of 2-{3-chloro-4-[ethyl-(3-phenyl-propyl)-amino]-phenyl}-1,1,1,3,3,3-hexafluoro-propan-2-ol, colorless oil, MS: 440 (MH+, 1Cl).
