To a 50 mL round-bottomed flask containing trans-2-chloro-N-(4-formyl-cyclohexyl)-5-trifluoromethyl-benzamide (Ex. 1 step 3) (100 mg, 0.3 mmol) and 3-amino-5-methylpyridine (36 mg, 0.3 mmol) in dry DCM (5 mL) is added sodium triacetoxyborohydride (106 mg, 0.45 mmol) in one portion. The suspension is stirred at RT for 4 hours. The mixture is partitioned between DCM and saturated sodium bicarbonate, passed through a phase separator to recover the DCM layer and evaporated to give a colourless solid. The crude product is redissolved in DCM, absorbed directly onto silica gel and columned on silica gel using a 12 g pre-packed column and isohexane/EtOAc gradient elution (0% to 100% EtOAc). Product-containing fractions are combined and evaporated and the product is isolated as a colourless solid after trituration with 20% EtOAc/isohexane, 55 mg, [MH+426.40].
