Cyclobutylamine (1.23 mL, 14.4 mmol), glacial acetic acid (1.5 mL), and sodium cyanoborohydride (1.81 g, 28.8 mmol) were added sequentially to a solution of crude rac-2-formyl-2,5-dimethyl-hexanoic acid ethyl ester (prepared as described in Example 19c; 2.88 g, 14.4 mmol) in ethanol (40 mL) at 25° C. The mixture was stirred at 25° C. for 18 h, and then was concentrated in vacuo. The residue was partitioned between half-saturated aqueous sodium bicarbonate solution (150 mL) and ethyl acetate (2×150 mL). The combined organic layers were dried over sodium sulfate and were concentrated in vacuo. The residue was purified by flash column chromatography (self-packed glass column, gradient elution: 20-30% ethyl acetate in hexanes) to afford rac-2-cyclobutylaminomethyl-2,5-dimethyl-hexanoic acid ethyl ester (1.76 g, 6.89 mmol, 48%) as a pale yellow oil. 1H NMR (400 MHz, CDCl3) δ: 0.87 (3H, d, J=3.0 Hz), 0.88 (3H, d, J=4.0 Hz), 0.99-1.07 (1H, m), 1.17 (3H, s), 1.26 (3H, t, J=7.5 Hz), 1.42-1.68 (4H, m), 2.43 (1H, d, J=11.7 Hz), 2.73 (1H, d, J=11.7 Hz), 3.15-3.23 (1H, m), 4.13 (2H, q, J=7.0 Hz).
