Abstract: A method of making (R)-N- 1-(3-methoxyphenyl)ethyl!-3-(2-chlorobenzene)propanamine which involves reducing the appropriate amidyl or iminyl precursor with an appropriate reducing agent. The appropriate amidyl or iminyl precursor is made from a synthesis involving the use of (R)-3-methoxy-.alpha.-methylbenzylamine. A method of condensing a nitrile with a primary or secondary amine to form an imine involves the reaction of a nitrile with diisobutylaluminum hydride; and then reacting the resultant compound with a primary or secondary amine to form the imine. The process is especially useful for producing enantiomerically pure chiral imines, and, ultimately, amines. Typical such imines have the formula: ##STR1## wherein R, R.sub.1, R.sub.2 and R.sub.3 are independently selected from the group consisting of hydrogen, substituted or unsubstituted alkyl, aryl and aralkyl.
