HCID 6352721methyl (3S)-6,7-dihydroxy-1,2,3,4-tetrahydroisoquinoline-3-carboxylate

Procedure

(S)-6,7-Dihydroxy-1,2,3,4-tetrahydro-isoquinoline-3-carboxylic acid (62 g), 200 mL anhydrous MeOH, and 26 mL concentrated hydrochloric acid were stirred together overnight at 70° C. The mixture was then evaporated and the residue resuspended in 500 mL acetonitrile with vigorous stirring to wash all the solid material. Stirring continued for 18 h at r.t., after which the solid product was collected by filtration, washed with 100 mL acetonitrile, and dried under vacuum overnight. Yield 77 g (quantitative). 1H NMR (400 MHz, MeOH-d4): 6.64(s, 1H), 6.61(s, 1H), 4.42-4.36(m, 1H), 4.29-4.24(m, 2H), 3.89(s, 3H), 3.29-3.22(m, 1H), 3.11-3.02(m, 1H).
