Procedure

To (2′-formyl-6-methoxy-4′-trifluoromethyl-biphenyl-3-yl)-acetic acid ethyl ester (1.0 g, 2.73 mmol) in MeOH (8 mL) was added ethylamine (2M in THF; 5 mL, 10 mmol), followed by acetic acid (0.23 mL, 4.09 mmol). Sodium cyanoborohydride (0.260 g, 4.14 mmol) was then added, and the reaction was stirred at room temperature and monitored by analytical LCMS. The reaction never reached completion, so the mixture was concentrated and partitioned between EtOAc and saturated aqueous NaHCO3. The aqueous layer was extracted with EtOAc, and the combined organic layers were dried over MgSO4, filtered, and concentrated. The residue was purified by silica gel chromatography (0-6% MeOH in CH2Cl2) to give the title compound.
