Procedure
15.2 g (74.5 mmol) of methyl 5-oxo-5,6,7,8-tetrahydronaphthalene-2-carboxylate [U. Gerlach and T. Wollmann, Tetrahedron Lett. 1992, 33 (38), 5499-5502] and 11.5 g (74.5 mmol) of 2-(2-methoxyphenyl)ethylamine in 50 ml of ethanol were heated under reflux for 2 h. The mixture was then concentrated to dryness under reduced pressure, the residue was taken up in 300 ml of methanol and 5.6 g (149 mmol) of sodium borohydride were, over 20 min, added a little at a time at RT with slight external cooling to the suspension. The brownish solution was stirred at RT for 24 h and then poured into 900 ml of water and extracted three times with ethyl acetate. The combined organic phases were dried over sodium sulphate and concentrated. The residue (24.5 g) was purified by flash chromatography on silica gel using the mobile phase cyclohexane/ethyl acetate 2:1.
