Procedure

To a solution of 4-Bromo-2-fluoro-5-methoxy-benzaldehyde (4.03 g, 17.33 mmol) from step (1) below in Methanol at 0° C. was added NaBH4 (0.65 g, 17.33 mmol). After the reaction mixture was stirred at 0° C. for 2 hours, it was allowed to warm to room temperature. The organic layer was taken up in ethyl ether, washed with water and dried over MgSO4, filtered and concentrated. The residue was purified by flash chromatography (25–45% EtOAc in hexanes) to give the product. Yield: 3.90 g, 99.0%. 1H NMR (CDCl3) δ: 3.90 (s, 3H), 4.74 (d, J=6.02 Hz, 2H), 6.82 (d, J=6.1 Hz, 1H), 7.29 (d, J=10.58 Hz, 1H).
