54.9 g of 2,2,5,5-tetramethylcyclopentanone was dissolved in a solvent mixture of 95 ml of methanol and 95 ml of water, and 24.0 g of sodium borohydride was added thereto. The mixture was stirred at 70° C. for 15 hours. The reaction solution was concentrated under reduced pressure, and 100 ml of water was added thereto. The mixture was twice extracted with 100 ml of chloroform, and the organic layers were combined and washed with 100 ml of an aqueous saturated sodium chloride solution. Then, the solution was concentrated under reduced pressure. The liquid residue was distilled under reduced pressure, whereby 43.25 g of 2,2,5,5-tetramethylcyclopentanol was obtained as a colorless oily substance (b.p. 40° C./3 mmHg).
