Procedure

The above ketone (760 mg, 3.689 mmol) was dissolved in methanol (40 ml). Then, ammonium acetate (2.841 g, 36.896 mmol), sodium cyanoborohydride (232 mg, 3.389 mmol) and molecular sieves (3 Å, 7.6 g) were added. The mixture was stirred at room temperature for two days. The solid was filtered and the filtrate was concentrated. The residue was dissolved in water and concentrated aqueous HCl was added dropwise until the pH≈2. The mixture was then extracted with ethyl acetate to remove the unfinished ketone and other by-products. The water layer was basified to pH 10 with aqueous sodium hydroxide (1M), and was extracted with dichloromethane and the organic layers were combined, dried over magnesium sulfate and concentrated to afford 290 mg of 1-(5,7-difluoro-naphthalen-2-yl)-ethylamine (38% yield).
