Procedure
4-bromo-3-methyl-benzaldehyde (2a: 10.20 g, 51.2 mmol) was dissolved in methanol (150 ml) before adding isoamyl amine (6.75 g, 77 mmol). After stirring overnight at room temperature, sodium borohydride (5.9 g, 154 mmol) was added. After stirring for 1 hour at room temperature, the reaction was quenched using concentrated (37%) hydrochloric acid and the volatiles were removed with a rotary evaporator under reduced pressure. The resulting residue was made basic with a 2 N aqueous sodium hydroxide solution and extracted twice with ethyl acetate. The combined organics were washed with a saturated aqueous sodium bicarbonate solution and dried over sodium sulfate, filtered and concentrated under reduced pressure to provide 13.7 g of the title compound (I-2b).
