Reaction Steps

To a solution of 2-(3,5-di-tert-butyl-4-hydroxyphenyl)-3-[3-[N-methyl-N-[2-(3,4-methylenedioxy-phenoxy)ethyl]amino]propyl]-5-ethoxycarbonylmethyl-1,3-thiazolidin-4-one (80 mg) prepared in Example 46 in dry tetrahydrofuran (5 ml) was added lithium aluminum hydride (20 mg) at -78° C., and the mixture was stirred at 0° C. for 3 hours. To the mixture was added water-containing tetrahydrofuran (5 ml), followed by stirring at that temperature for 1 hour. The mixture was neutralized with 1N hydrochloric acid, concentrated under reduced pressure. The residue was purified by silica gel column chromatography (eluent; chloroform-methanol, 95:5) to afford 68 mg (86%) of the title compound as a colorless oil.
