Reaktionsschritte

3-Isoquinolinecarboxaldehyde (7 g, 84%) was prepared by reduction of 3-isoquinolinecarboxylic acid methyl ester (10 g, 52 mmol) with 1M LAH (27 ml in THF, 27 mmol) in 300 ml of dry THF at -78° C. for 30 minutes. The mixture was quenched with 7 ml of acetic acid, concentrated in vacuo, and the residue was purified by silica gel column chromatography (hexane/ethyl acetate, 2:1) to afford 7 g (84%) of 3-iso-quinolinecarboxaldehyde.
