Reaktionsschritte

A mixture of 3-isoquinolinecarboxaldehyde (7 g, 44.5 mmol), 5.5 g (88 mmol) of ethylene glycol, 400 ml of toluene and 1.1 g (4.4 mmol) of p-toluenesulfonic acid was refluxed for 16 h while separating the water formed. The mixture was cooled to room temperature and washed with sodium bicarbonate solution, water, and brine. The organic layer was dried over sodium sulfate, and concentrated in vacuo to afford 8 g (89.9%) of 3-(1,3-dioxolan-2-yl)isoquinoline (Formula XII: R2 =R7 =H).
