✦ Synopsis


ot-hydroxyesters 5a.g or diols 6a.g have been obtained in high yields by reduction of aromatic ot-ketoesters 4 once or twice respectively by using NaBH4 as the reducer under suitable conditions. The use of a solvent that does not interact with the reagent allowed the double reduction to occur with only a slight excess of borohydride in very mild conditions.
