To a solution of 3-pentanone (1 g, 11.61 mmol) in anhydrous 1,2-dichloroethane (45 ml) is added allylamine (0.872 ml, 11.61 mmol) followed by NaBH(OAc)3 (3.44 g, 16.254 mmol) at ambient temperature and under nitrogen. The reaction is stirred at room temperature overnight. The reaction mixture is quenched with 1N NaOH and extracted with dichloromethane. The extract is dried over Na2SO4 and concentrated in vacuo to allyl-(1-ethyl-propyl)-amine
