Procedimiento

3.34 g of lithium aluminum hydride are placed in a 250-cm3 flask, and ether is added gently with stirring. Using a dropping funnel, 5 g of methyl (7-methoxy-1-naphthyl)acetate previously dissolved in 50 cm3 of ether are added slowly. The reaction medium is left stirring for 30 minutes. It is poured very slowly into a mixture of water and ice so as to hydrolyze the excess unreacted hydride. The reaction medium is filtered. The aqueous phase is extracted with 3 times 50 cm3 of ether, and the ether phases are dried over magnesium sulfate and evaporated. The white solid obtained is recrystallized.
