Procedure

Sodium cyanoborohydride (36 mg, 0.57 mmol) was added to a solution of compound 8 (65 mg, 0.19 mmol) and paraformaldehyde (57 mg, 1.9 mmol) in acetic acid (10 ml). The reaction mixture was stirred at room temperature overnight and poured onto ice. Sodium bicarbonate was used to adjust pH to 9. Reaction mixture was extracted with ethyl acetate. Organic layer was separated, washed with brine, dried over anhydrous sodium sulfate and evaporated. The residue was purified with PTLC (5% MeOH in DCM as the developing solvent) to give product 9 (67 mg, Yield: 95%): 1H NMR (200 MHz, CDCl3): δ.8.14 (1H, d, J=2.4 Hz), 7.76 (1H, d, d, J=8.6 Hz, J2=2.4 Hz), 7.39 (2H, d, J=8.8 Hz), 6.87 (2H, m), 6.76 (3H, m), 4.50 (2H, t, J=4.8 Hz), 3.87 (2H, t, J=4.8 Hz), 3.70 (6H, m), 3.61 (2H, m), 2.98 (6H, s), 2.49 (1H, b), HRMS (EI) m/z calcd. for [C21H28N2O4]+ 372.2049.
