[αS-(αR*,γR*,δR*)]δ-Amino-N-butyl-γ-hydroxy-α-(1-methylethyl)cyclohexanehexanamide hydrochloride (II: 152 mg, 0.328 mmol), sodium acetate (27 mg, 0.328 mmol) and 4-methylpentanal (36 mg, 0.36 mmol) were dissolved in MeOH (3.2 mL). Sodium cyanoborohydride (20.6 mg, 0.328 mmol) was added and the reaction cooled to 0° C. Acetic acid (0.57 mL, 10.0 mmol) was added dropwise. After the addition was complete the reaction was allowed to warm to r.t. over 3 h. Additional acetic acid was added (0.3 mL) and the reaction was allowed to continue for 30 min. The reaction was brought to a pH of one by the addition of 1N HCl and continued stirring for one h. Water (10 mL) was added and the reaction was neutralized by the addition of solid NaHCO3. The aqueous phase was extracted with CHCl3 (3×15 mL). The combined organic extracts were dried (MgSO4), filtered and concentrated in vacuo. Silica gel chromatography (97.5:2.5:0.2 to 96:4:0.2 CH2Cl2 :MeOH:NH4OH gradient) of the concentrate afforded the free amine (76 mg, 56%) which was converted to the hydrochloride salt by treating a MeOH (5 mL) solution of the amine with 1N HCl (0.185 mL). The solvent was removed in vacuo and the residue dissolved in water (20 mL) and EtOH (2 mL). Filtration and lyophilization afforded the title compound (84 mg, 56%) as a white solid.
