56 ml (67 millimoles) of a 20% strength solution of diisobutylaluminum hydride in hexane were added to a solution of 10 g (32 millimoles) of 4-[(5,6,7,8-tetrahydro-5,5,8,8-tetramethylnaphth-2-yl)-ethynyl]-benzonitrile (Example 1) in 120 ml of absolute ether. The mixture was stirred for a further 40 minutes, 150 ml of saturated tartaric acid solution were added dropwise and stirring was continued for a further hour. Thereafter, the mixture was extracted three times with ether and the combined ether phases were washed twice with water, dried over Na2SO4 and evaporated down. Recrystallization of the residue from isopropanol gave 3.8 g (38%) of the title compound of melting point 130° C.
