Nitric Acid → 1-Methyl-7-nitro-3,4-dihydroisoquinoline

참여 물질

반응 단계

1.0 g of 1-methyl-3,4-dihydroisoquinoline was dissolved in 7.0 ml of conc. nitric acid at 0° C., and 14.0 ml of fuming nitric acid was added dropwise to the solution. The solution was stirred for one hour at the same temperature, and overnight at room temperature. The reaction mixture was poured into ice, neutralized with aqueous solution of sodium hydroxide, and extracted with ethyl acetate. The organic layer was washed with saturated aqueous solution of sodium chloride, and dried with anhydrous sodium sulfate. The desiccant was separated by filtration, and the filtrate was purified by silica gel column chromatography to obtain 1.08 g of 1-methyl-7-nitro-3,4-dihydroisoquinoline, which was white crystal (yield: 82%).
