Reaction Steps

To a solution of methyl (5-methoxy-3,4-dihydro-2-naphthyl)formate (0.75 g) in toluene (10 ml) was added dropwise a solution of diisobutylaluminum hydride [1.02N in toluene (6.7 ml)] at 4° C.~6° C. under nitrogen atmosphere. The reaction mixture was stirred under same conditions for 2.5 hours. The mixture was poured into a saturated ammonium chloride solution, and the organic layer was separated, washed with brine, dried over magnesium sulfate, and evaporated in vacuo to give crude (5-methoxy-3,4-dihydro-2-naphthyl)methanol as a colorless oil (0.66 g).
