Procedure

A solution of 1,4-dioxa-spiro[4.5]decane-8-carboxylic acid ethyl ester (2.00 g, 9.33 mmol) in tetrahydrofuran (40 mL) at 0° C. was treated dropwise with a 1.0M solution of lithium aluminum hydride in tetrahydrofuran (10.0 mL, 10.0 mmol). The reaction mixture was stirred at 0° C. for 30 min and was then quenched by the dropwise addition of ethyl acetate. The reaction was then diluted with a saturated aqueous ammonium chloride solution (25 mL) and extracted with ethyl acetate 3×25 mL). The combined organic extracts were dried over sodium sulfate, filtered, and concentrated in vacuo to afford pure (1,4-dioxa-spiro[4.5]dec-8-yl)-methanol (1.60 g, 99.9%) as a colorless oil.
