Into a 1 L 3-necked round-bottom flask purged and maintained with an inert atmosphere of nitrogen, was placed a solution of 2-((2,4-dichlorobenzyl)(methyl)amino)-1-(3-bromophenyl)ethanone (77 g, 198.97 mmol, 1.00 equiv, theoretical yield) in methanol (300 mL). This was followed by the addition of NaBH4 (15 g, 394.74 mmol, 1.98 equiv) in several batches at 0° C. The resulting solution was stirred for 30 min at 0° C. in a water/ice bath. The reaction was then quenched by the addition of 100 mL of acetone. The resulting mixture was concentrated under vacuum. The resulting solution was extracted with 3×100 mL of ethyl acetate and the organic layers combined and dried over anhydrous sodium sulfate. The residue was applied onto a silica gel column with ethyl acetate/petroleum ether (1:100). This resulted in 50 g (65%) of 2-((2,4-dichlorobenzyl)(methyl)amino)-1-(3-bromophenyl)ethanol as a yellow oil.
