Procedure

First, 1.9 g (0.05 mol) of lithium aluminum hydride was suspended in 50 ml of dried ether while being cooled on an ice bath. Then, 8.6 g (0.05 mol) of 2,6-dimethyl octanoic acid was dripped into the resultant mixture, while the mixture was being stirred, and was reacted with the mixture for 20 hours, thereby obtaining 6.32 g of 2,6-dimethyl-1-octanol (V) at yield of 80%. This reaction is described as follows: ##STR6##
