Procedure
In a similar fashion, α-methylcinnamonitrile was treated with diisobutyl aluminum hydride and the intermediate aluminum-imine complex treated with (R)-1-(3-methoxyphenyl)ethylamine. The intermediate imine was treated with ethanolic sodium borohydride. Work-up and chromatography yielded (R)-N-(2-methyl-3-phenylprop-2-enyl)-1-(3-methoxyphenyl)ethylamine, 25G, as a clear, colorless oil; m/z (rel. int.) 281 (M+, 5), 266 (18), 190 (12), 146 (78), 135 (82), 131 (100), 115 (21), 105 (21), 91 (62), 77 (19).
