Reaction Steps

A solution of ethyl 3-[1-(triphenylmethyl)-1H-1,2,4-triazol-3-yl]propanoate obtained in Reference Example 24 (700 mg, 1.70 mmol) in THF (5 mL) was added to a suspension of lithium aluminum hydride (84.0 mg, 2.21 mmol) in THF (5 mL) at 0° C., and the mixture was stirred at 0° C. for 5 hr, and then at room temperature for 15 hr. Water and 1N aqueous sodium hydroxide solution were added to the mixture, and the insoluble material was filtered off. The filtrate was concentrated under reduced pressure, and the residue was purified by silica gel column chromatography (0-80% ethyl acetate/hexane) to give the title compound as a white powder (289 mg, 46%).
