Procedure

To a solution of 1-(3,4-dichlorophenyl)bicyclo[3.1.0]hexan-3-one (100 mg; 0.41 mmol) in methanol (3 mL) was added methylamine (33% in ethanol; 1 mL) and NaCNBH3 (33 mg; 0.53 mmol; 1.3 eq). The mixture was stirred at room temperature overnight. The reaction mixture was cooled to 10° C., and acidified with 1 N HCl (4 mL). The reaction mixture was concentrated at 30° C., and the resulting aqueous layer was diluted with H2O (10 mL). The aqueous layer was then extracted with ethyl acetate (15 mL) to remove nonpolar impurities. The aqueous layer was then adjusted to pH 9 with 1N NaOH, and the aqueous layer was extracted with ethyl acetate (2×20 mL). The combined organic layers were dried over MgSO4, filtered, and concentrated to an oily residue. The oil was then dissolved in diethyl ether (5 mL), and the HCl salt was formed by slowly adding HCl/diethyl ether solution (0.5 mL). The slurry was stirred for 30 minutes before filtration. The solids were rinsed with diethyl ether (5 mL) and the compound was quickly transferred to a vacuum dessicator and dried under vacuum for 12 hours to give the title compound as a beige solid (76 mg; 64%). 1H NMR (400 MHz, CHLOROFORM-d) δ ppm 0.78-0.93 (m, 1 H) 1.19-1.27 (m, 1 H) 1.44-1.50 (m, 1H) 1.67-1.80 (m, 1H) 2.03-2.13 (m, 1 H) 2.35-2.50 (m, 3 H) 2.55-2.73 (m, 7 H) 3.11-3.35 (m, 1 H) 3.74-3.88 (m, 1 H) 7.16 (dd, 1 H) 7.23-7.41 (m, 2 H). 13C NMR (100 MHz, CHLOROFORM-d) δ ppm 17.41 (s, 1 C) 24.68 (s, 1 C) 26.81 (s, 1 C) 27.02 (s, 1 C) 30.08 (s, 1 C) 31.31 (s, 1 C) 32.24 (s, 1 C) 32.58 (s, 1C) 33.62 (s, 1C) 35.90 (s, 1C) 38.455 (s, 1C) 59.96 (s, 1 C) 63.08 (s, 1 C) 126.08 (s, 1 C) 128.75 (s, 1 C) 130.53 (s, 1 C) 132.59 (s, 1 C) 143.92 (s, 1 C).
