A mixture of 4-methoxybenzaldehyde (10 g, 74 mmol), 2-aminoethanol (4.9 g, 81 mmol) and NaHCO3 (9.3 g, 110 mmol) in MeOH (100 mL) was refluxed for 3 hours. The reaction mixture was cooled to 15° C. To the mixture was added portionwise NaBH4 (3.3 g, 88 mmol) at 15° C. The mixture was stirred at room temperature for 2 hours. The reaction mixture was filtered and the filtrate was concentrated under vacuum to give 2-[(4-methoxybenzyl)amino]ethanol (130a, 20 g) as a brown oil.
