Methyl-4-vinylbenzoate 70 (2.270 g, 14.00 mmol) was dissolved in 50ml of tetrahydrofuran and cooled to 0° C. 9-BBN (0.5M in THF)(28.00 ml, 14.00 mmol) was added and the mixture was stirred for 2 hours. The solution was allowed to warm to room temperature and stirred for an additional 2 hours. The reaction was cooled to 0° C. and quenched with alkaline hydrogen peroxide. The mixture was then extracted with diethyl ether. The extracts were dried over anhydrous sodium sulfate and concentrated en vacuo. The residue was purified by flash chromatography on silica eluted with 4:1 hexane/acetone to give 1.632 g (64.7%) of 4-(2-hydroxyethyl)benzoic acid methyl ester 71 as a clear oil.
