Procedure

Treatment of (±)-(7-bromo-2,3-dihydro-1-benzofuran-2-yl)methyl 4-methylbenzenesulfonate (5.0 g, 13.05 mmol) with 2-methoxyphenylboronic acid (2.57 g, 16.96 mmol), dichlorobis(tri-o-tolylphosphine)-palladium(II) (0.532 g, 0.677 mmol), and potassium carbonate (4.51 g, 32.62 mmol) generally according to the procedure described for Intermediate 37 provided (±)-[7-(2-methoxyphenyl)-2,3-dihydro-1-benzofuran-2-yl]methyl 4-methylbenzenesulfonate. Treatment of the tosylate with sodium azide (0.76 g, 11.69 mmol) generally according to the procedure described for Intermediate 98 gave (±)-2-(azidomethyl)-7-(2-methoxyphenyl)-2,3-dihydro-1-benzofuran. Treatment of the azide with palladium on carbon (0.072 g, 10 wt. %) generally according to the procedure described for Example 1 provided 0.453 g (12%) of (±)-1-[7-(2-methoxyphenyl)-2,3-dihydro-1-benzofuran-2-yl]methanamine as a white solid, hydrochloride salt. mp >250° C.; Anal. calcd. for C16H17NO2HCl: C, 65.86; H, 6.22; N, 4.8. Found: C, 65.72; H, 6.15; N, 4.86.
