Vorschrift

7.76 g of methyl 2-hexyl-3-oxo-5-[(tetrahydro-2H-pyran-2-yl)oxy]hexadecanoate (0.017 mol) were dissolved in 500 ml of THF while gassing with argon, treated with 20 ml of MeOH and cooled to -5° C. 5.3 g of sodium borohydride (0.14 mol) were added portionwise while stirring in such a manner that the temperature did not exceed 0° C. After stirring for 3 hours the excess sodium borohydride was filtered off, the reaction mixture was hydrolyzed (to pH 6) with 2N hydrochloric acid in the cold and the solvent was evaporated off. The residue was extracted with ether and the ethereal phase was dried and evaporated. There were obtained 7.71 g of methyl 2-hexyl-3-hydroxy-5-[(tetrahydro-2H-pyran-2-yl)oxy]hexadecanoate.
