Procedure

To a solution of 5-(2-azido-2-(pyridin-4-yl)ethyl)-2,3,4,5-tetrahydro-2,8-dimethyl-1H-pyrido[4,3-b]indole (2.4 g, 6.93 mmol) in EtOH-water (25-2.5 mL) were added zinc dust (1.8 g, 27.7 mmol) and ammonium chloride (1.5 g, 27.74 mmol) and the reaction mixture stirred at 80° C. for 45 min. The reaction mixture was filtered and the filtrate was concentrated under reduced pressure. The residue was basified with aq. ammonia and extracted with EtOAc. The organic layer was dried over anhydrous sodium sulfate and evaporated to yield 2-(1,2,3,4-tetrahydro-2,8-dimethylpyrido[4,3-b]indol-5-yl)-1-(pyridin-4-yl)ethanamine (1.2 g). 1H NMR (CDCl3, freebase) δ (ppm): 8.56 (d, 2H), 7.28 (d, 2H), 7.21 (m, 2H), 7.00 (d, 1H), 4.48 (t, 1H), 4.08 (m, 2H), 3.65 (q, 2H), 2.83 (m, 2H), 2.72 (m, 1H), 2.56 (m, 1H), 2.53 (s, 3H), 2.44 (s, 3H). Separation by chiral HPLC provided enantiomers 27a and 27b.
