-

Yield:86576-86-5 100%

Reaction Conditions:

with sodium tetrahydroborate in tetrahydrofuran;ethanol at 0 - 20; for 1 h;

Steps:

16.2

Step 2: rac (3-Hydroxy-cyclohexyl)-acetic acid methyl ester (3-Oxo-cyclohexyl)-acetic acid methyl ester (240 mg, 1.39 mmol) was dissolved in 5 ml THF and 5 ml ethanol and cooled to 0-5° C. Sodium borohydride (79 mg, 2.09 mmol) was added and the reaction mixture was stirred at room temperature for 1 hour. The reaction mixture was quenched with saturated NaHCO3-solution and extracted three times with ethyl acetate. The organic extracts were washed with brine, dried with sodium sulfate, filtered and evaporated. The crude product (240 mg, 100%) was obtained as a light yellow oil and used without any further purification for the next step.
