The obtained mixture was washed with water, dried over magnesium sulfate and distilled to remove the solvent. The residue was purified by silica gel column chromatography (solvent: dichloromethane/ethanol (100:1)) to obtain 2.1 g of 3-[N-methyl-N-(2-(3,4-dimethoxyphenyl)ethyl)-amino]-2-methylpropionitrile.
