A solution of ethyl 2-oxo-2-[2-(tetrahydropyran-2-yloxymethyl)phenyl]acetate (22.60 g, 77.3 mmol) in methanol (20 ml) was stirred at 0° C., and sodium borohydride (1.46 g, 38.6 mmol) was added to thereto. After 10 minutes, water (100 ml) was added, and the mixture was extracted with ethyl acetate and dried over anhydrous magnesium sulfate. The solvent was evaporated, and the residue was purified by column chromatography on silica gel (n-hexane/ethyl acetate=4/1) to give the desired compound ethyl α-hydroxy-2-(tetrahydropyran-2-yloxymethyl)phenylacetate (20.47 g, 90.0%) as an oil.
