Yield: 91%

Reaction Conditions:

with sodium tetrahydroborate in ethanol at 20; for 3 h;

Steps:

General procedure for the preparation of 14a, 17a-17d
General procedure: To a solution of substituted phenylaldehyde 13, 15a-15d (8 mmol) in anhydrous ethyl alcohol (12 ml) was added 96% NaBH₄(0.32 g, 8 mmol) and then stirred at room temperature for 3.0 h. After the solvent was evaporated, the residue was extracted with ethyl acetate, washed with brine and dried over Na₂SO₄. The organic layer was concentrated under reduced pressure to afford 14a, 17a-17d as pale yellow oils. The 14a, 17a-17d were used directly for the next step without further purification. 4-chloro-2-(hydroxymethyl)phenol 14a, yield 91.0%, ESI-MS(m/z): 159.1[M+H]⁺.
