Procedure

A quantity of 0.1 g (0.4 mmole, 1 eq) of 1-(5-Bromo-6-methoxy-pyridin-2-yl)-piperazine and 0.061 g (0.4 mmole, 1 eq) of 3,4-dimethoxybenzaldehyde is dissolved in 5 mL of anhydrous toluene, and 3 drops of glacial acetic acid is added. An excess of NaBH(OAc)3 is added to the solution and stirred at room temperature under a nitrogen atmosphere until no starting material is detectable by TLC. At that time the reaction is quenched with saturated aqueous NaHCO3 and extracted with ethyl acetate. The ethyl acetate extracts are dried over anhydrous MgSO4 and concentrated in vacuo. The residue is chromatographed on SiO2 with 10% CH3OH (2M NH3)/CH2Cl2 to afford 1-(5-bromo-6-methoxypyridin-2-yl)-4-(3,4-dimethoxybenzyl)piperazine (compound 1). Analysis: 1H NMR (400 MHz, DMSO): 7.71 (1H, d), 7.36 (1H, s), 7.05 (2H, m), 6.39 (1H, d), 4.38 (4H, m), 3.80 (9H, m), 3.39 (4H, m), 3.02 (2H, m). MS (LC-MS): Calculated for C19H24BrN3O3 422.32. Found 436.3424.31 (M+2).
