Procedure

2-(Cyclopropylmethyl-propyl-amino)-5-trifluoromethyl-benzaldehyde (6.0 g) is dissolved in diethylether (50 ml) and thereto is added a 2M methyl magnesium bromide in diethylether (7.35 ml) under nitrogen flow at −70° C. The mixture is stirred at the same temperature for 30 minutes, and the reaction solution is quenched with a saturated aqueous ammonium chloride solution and the mixture is extracted with diethylether. The organic layer is washed with a saturated brine, dried over magnesium sulfate, and concentrated under reduced pressure. The resulting residue is purified by silica gel column chromatography (hexane:ethyl acetate=4:1→3:2) to give 1-[2-(cyclopropylmethyl-propyl-amino)-5-trifluoromethyl-phenyl]-ethanol (5.43 g). MS (m/z): 302 [M+H]+
