To a stirred solution of 57.1 g (533 mmol) of 2-methylaniline in 300 ml of toluene 25.3 g (133 mmol) of TiCl4 was added dropwise for 30 min at room temperature in argon atmosphere. The resulting mixture was stirred for 30 min at 90° C. followed by an addition of 30.0 g (133.0 mmol) 8-bromo-3,4-dihydronaphthalen-1(2H)-one. This mixture was stirred for 10 min at 90° C., poured into 500 ml of water, and the product was extracted with 3×200 ml of ethyl acetate. The combined organic extract was dried over Na2SO4 and evaporated to dryness. The residue was re-crystallized from 50 ml of ethyl acetate. The obtained solid was dissolved in 600 ml of methanol, 15.4 g (244 mmol) of NaBH3CN and 5 ml of acetic acid were added in argon atmosphere. The resulting mixture was refluxed for 3 h, then cooled to room temperature, and evaporated to dryness. The residue was diluted with 500 ml of water, and crude product was extracted with 3×200 ml of ethyl acetate. The combined organic extract was dried over Na2SO4 and evaporated to dryness. The residue was re-crystallized from 400 ml of methanol. Yield 33.2 g (79%) of a yellow crystalline powder. Anal. Calc. for C17H18BrN: C, 64.57; H, 5.74; N, 4.43.
