Procedure

Sodium triacetoxyborohydride (1.25 g, 5.89 mmol) was added with care to a solution of 2-amino-1-(4-chloro-3-methoxy-phenyl)-ethanol (J. Med. Chem., 30(10), 1887, (1987)) (600 mg, 2.98 mmol) and propionaldehyde (0.22 mL, 2.96 mmol) in dichloromethane (110 mL), and the reaction mixture was stirred at room temperature for 1 hour. Sodium bicarbonate solution (sat. aq., 10 mL) was added dropwise and then the reaction mixture was diluted further with water (20 mL) and dichloromethane (20 mL). The aqueous layer was separated and re-extracted with dichloromethane (2×20 mL). The combined organic layers were dried over anhydrous magnesium sulphate, filtered and concentrated in vacuo. The crude product was purified by column chromatography on silica eluting with dichloromethane:methanol:0.880 ammonia (95:5:0.5 to 92:8:0.8) to yield the title compound as a solid (320 mg, 1.31 mmol, 44%). 1H NMR (CDCl3, 400 MHz) δ: 0.90 (t, 3H), 1.50 (q, 2H), 2.50-2.70 (m, 5H), 2.90 (dd. 1H), 3.80 (s, 3H), 4.65 (dd, 1H), 6.85 (d, 1H), 7.00 (1H, d), 7.30 (bd, 1H). LRMS (APCI): m/z 244 (MH+), 226 (MH+ less H2O).
