Nickel boride Reduction General Method: To a stirred solution of nickel chloride hexahydrate (820 mg, 3.45 mmol) in 12 mL EtOH and 3 mL THF, at 0° C., NaBH4 (130 mg, 3.45 mmol) was added. The resulting black suspension was stirred at 0° C. while N-benzyl-(3-methoxy-4-nitro-benzyl)-methyl-amine was added as a solution in 5 mL THF. After several minutes, 260 mg of NaBH4 was added in several portions over 10 minutes, and the reaction mixture was subsequently allowed to warm to room temperature. After 2 h, TLC indicated complete conversion to a new, more polar product. At this point, 1.5 mL of 5% NH4OH was added and the reaction was stirred for about 10 min, until the black solids achieved a granular consistency. The reaction was filtered through a glass fiber filter, rinsing with THF. The clear colorless filtrate was concentrated to about ¼ volume, diluted with 30 mL water and extracted with EtOAc (3×30 mL). The combined extracts were washed with brine, dried over MgSO4 and filtered through a short plug of silica and concentrated in vacuo to afford 575 mg (65%) of the desired product as an off-white solid. 1H NMR (400 MHz, CDCl3): δ7.2-7.4 (m, 5H), 7.85 (s, 1H), 6.85 (s, 1H), 6.74 (d, J=8.2 Hz, 1H), 6.66 (d, J=8.2 Hz, 1H), 3.87 (s, 3H), 3.73 (br. s, 2H) 3.49 (s, 2H), 3.45 (s, 2H), 2.18 (s, 3H).
