Procedure

To a solution of amino-phenyl-acetic acid (R)-(1-aza-bicyclo[2.2.2]oct-3-yl)ester (I76) (100 mg, 0.38 mmol) in dry THF (3.84 mL), are added 4-methylbenzaldehyde (68 mL, 0.57 mmol) and AcOH (0.5 mL, 8.73 mmol). The mixture is stirred at RT and sodium triacetoxyborohydride (163 mg, 0.77 mmol) is added. The reaction is stirred at RT for 1.5 hours then cyclohexane is added and the mixture is evaporated to dryness. The crude is purified by flash chromatography (DCM/MeOH/NH4OH=95/5/0.5) to obtain the title compound as a colorless oil (76 mg, 54% yield, mixture of diastereoisomers).
