2-Butyl-3-oxo-2,3,5,6,7,8-hexahydroisoquinoline-4-carbonitrile (7-012) (260 mg, 1.13 mmol) was dissolved in water (6 mL)/ethanol (26 mL), to the reaction mixture was added potassium hydroxide (444 mg, 7.91 mmol), and the reaction mixture was heated under reflux for 24 h, and then cooled under ice-cooling. To the reaction mixture was added dropwise diluted hydrochloric acid (2 mol/L, 8 mL) and the reaction mixture was extracted with ethyl acetate (70 mL), dried over anhydrous magnesium sulfate, and evaporated under reduced pressure. The crystal residue was recrystallized from hexane to give 2-butyl-3-oxo-2,3,5,6,7,8-hexahydroisoquinoline-4-carboxylic acid (4-501-05) (197 mg, 70%) as a white crystal.
