After 30 minutes iodomethane (0.30 mL, 4.76 mmol) is added and the solution stirred for 1 hour. The solution is diluted with Et2O (30 mL), washed with water (2×20 mL), brine (20 mL) dried over MgSO4, filtered and concentrated. The residue is purified by ISCO (2%-5% EtOAc gradient) to furnish the title compound (0.33 g, 1.76 mmol, 41%). 1H NMR (CDCl3), δ 1.42 (d, J=6.5 Hz, 6H), 2.43 (s, 3H), 3.84-3.91 (m, 1H), 6.24-6.27 (m, 1H), 3.93 (s, 1H), 6.29 (s, 1H), 7.01-7.14 (m, 1H), 7.38 (d, J=7.5 Hz, 1H) ppm. LC/MS (m/z): calcd. for C13H17N (M+H)+: 188.2. found: 188.1.
