Procedure

A solution of the azido benzocyclobutenylmethyl compound (0.8 g) (step 8 above) in THF (5.2 ml) is added over a period of 30 min to a suspension of LAH (0.125 g) in anhydrous ether (16.5 ml) stirred under nitrogen. The mixture is refluxed for about 2 hours and cooled. Water (0.125 ml), aqueous NaOH (15% solution, 0.125 ml) and water (3.75 ml) are added to the cooled mixture which is filtered. The solid is washed with ether and the filtrate dried over Na2SO4. The dried filtrate is filtered, evaporated in vacuo and chromatographed (silica gel) eluting with 1:1 ethyl acetate/MeOH. The pure fractions are combined and evaporated in vacuo yielding an oil. NMR analysis identifies the oil as the desired product.
