Reductive amination
The reagents used in these reactions are amines and cyanoborohydride. These two reagents form a couple in carrying out reductive amination.
Reductive amination is usually established by treating a carbonyl compound with an amine. The resulting imine is further reduced using a reducing agent like cyanoborohydride.
