Participants

Reaction Conditions

Reaction Steps

To a cooled (0° C.) solution of 2-(5-{3-[4-(4-Chloro-phenyl)-4-hydroxy-3,3-dimethyl-piperidin-1-yl]-propylidene}-5,11-dihydro-10-oxa-1-aza-dibenzo[a,d]cyclohepten-7-yloxy)-2-methyl-propionic acid ethyl ester (117 mg, 0.193 mmol) in tetrahydrofuran (5 mL) was added lithium aluminum hydride (1.0 M solution in tetrahydrofuran, 0.39 mL, 0.39 mmol). The reaction was allowed to stir at 0° C. for 2 h. Excess hydride was quenched by the addition of a saturated aqueous potassium/sodium tartrate solution. The mixture was stirred at rt until two clear phases formed. The mixture was diluted with ethyl acetate and shaken. The extracts were dried over magnesium sulfate, filtered and concentrated. The crude residue was purified by silica gel chromatography (methylene chloride—90:10 methylene chloride/methanol gradient) to afford the titled compound (102 mg, 94%).
