Procedure

To a solution of 5-amino-2-methoxypyridine (747 mg, 6.02 mmol) in CH2Cl2 (50 mL) was added acetone (500 μL) and sodium triacetoxyborohydride (1.95 g, 9.20 mmol). The reaction was stirred at room temperature for 20 hours and was diluted with aqueous NaHCO3. The aqueous solution was washed with CH2Cl2 (3×) and the combined organic solutions were washed with brine (1×), dried (MgSO4), filtered and concentrated. The residue was purified by medium pressure chromatography eluting with a solvent gradient (5% EtOAc in hexanes to 50% EtOAc in hexanes) to provide 810 mg of isopropyl-(6-methoxy-pyridin-3-yl)-amine. 1H NMR (CDCl3) δ 7.55 (s, 1H), 6.96 (dd, 1H), 6.61 (d, 1H), 3.86 (s, 3H), 3.52 (m, 1H), 1.19 (d, 6H).
