Procedure
A solution of m-anisaldeyde (500 mg, 3.67 mmol) and cyclohexylamine (420 μL, 3.67 mmol) in acetonitrile (30 mL) was stirred for 4 h and slowly treated with sodium cyanoborohydride (227 mg, 4.4 mmol). Glacial acetic acid was added until pH˜6 (pH paper), and the solution was stirred for 16 h. Conc. HCl (0.5 mL) was added and acetonitrile was evaporated under reduced pressure. The crude residue was quenched with water (100 mL) and extracted with ethyl acetate. The aqueous phase was basified with 10% aqueous NaOH until pH>7 and extracted with dichloromethane (3×50 mL). The organic phase was dried over magnesium sulfate, filtered, and evaporated under reduced pressure without heating to provide 670 mg of N-(3-methoxybenzyl)-cyclohexylamine (83% yield) as a light oil. 1H NMR (300 MHz, acetone-d6) δ 1.05-1.30 (m, 5H), 1.58 (m, 1H), 1.72 (m, 2H), 1.89 (m, 2H), 2.45 (m, 1H), 3.77 (s, 2H), 3.79 (s, 3H), 6.77 (dd, J=2.1 and 8.2 Hz, 1H), 6.92 (d, J=7.5 Hz, 1H), 6.96 (s, 1H), 7.21 (t, J=7.8 Hz, 1H) ppm.
