Solution
The −CHO group is reduced to −CH2OH.
\[\begin{array}{cc}
\ce{CH3 - CH2 - CH - CHO ->[NaBH4] CH3 - CH2 - CH - CH2OH}\\
\phantom{...}|\phantom{................................}|\phantom{.}\\
\phantom{......}\ce{\underset{2-Methylbutanal}{CH3}}\phantom{....................}\ce{\underset{2-Methylbutan-1-ol}{CH3}}\phantom{}
