A solution of methylamine (30 mL of a 2.0 M solution, 60 mmol) was added to 2-ethoxy-3-isopropylbenzaldehyde (1.49 g, 7.75 mmol) and the mixture was stirred for 72 h. The solution was concentrated under reduced pressure. The residue was dissolved in EtOH (30 mL) and treated with NaBH4 (0.293 g, 7.75 mmol). After stirring for 18 h, the reaction mixture was concentrated under reduced pressure and then dissolved in 1 N NaOH (30 mL). The mixture was extracted with Et2O (3×50 mL). The combined organics were collected, washed with brine (2×100 mL), dried (Na2SO4) and concentrated to yield the title compound (1.51 g, 94%) as a light yellow oil: 1H NMR (300 MHz, DMSO-d6) δ 7.21-7.13 (m, 2H), 7.04 (t, J=7.5 Hz, 1H), 3.79 (q, J=7.0 Hz, 2H), 3.63 (s, 2H), 3.28-3.23 (m, 1H), 2.29 (s, 3H), 1.93 (br s, 1H), 1.35 (t, J=3.8 Hz, 3H), 1.16 (d, J=6.9 Hz, 6H).
