Procedure

A solution of N-[2-methyl-1-(4-phenyl-1H-imidazol-2-yl)-propyl]-acetamide (0.077 g, 0.30 mmol) in THF (2.0 mL) was added dropwise over 10 min to a refluxing 1.0 M solution of LiAlH4 in THF (3.0 mL). The reaction was maintained at reflux for 11 h, cooled to rt, and quenched by sequential treatment with 0.11 mL of cold water (5° C.), 0.11 mL of 15% NaOH in aqueous solution, and 0.33 mL of cold water (5° C.). The resultant solid was removed by suction filtration and the filtrate (pH 8-9) was extracted three times with EtOAc. The combined organic fractions were dried over MgSO4, filtered, and concentrated to afford 0.069 g of a 5:1 mixture (determined by 1H NMR) of ethyl-[2-methyl-1-(4-phenyl-1H-imidazol-2-yl)-propyl]-amine and recovered
