Procedure
Into a stirred solution of (1R, 3R)-1,2,3,4-tetrahydro-6,8-dimethoxy-1,3-dimethyl-isoquinoline (114 mg, 0.5 mmol) and benzyl chloride (137 mg, 1.1 mmol) in methyl ethyl ketone was added K2CO3 (320 mg, 2.3 mmol). The resulting mixture was heated to reflux for 24 h, after which time it was cooled down and poured into H2O. Et2O was added and the organic layer was washed with H2O, brine, dried over MgSO4, and concentrated in vacuo. The crude product was purified by MPLC (hexanes/EtOAc/Et3N; 9:1:0.3) to yield N-benzyl-(1R, 3R)-1,2,3,4-tetrahydro-6,8-dimethoxy-1,3-dimethyl-isoquinoline (148 mg, 93%) as a colorless oil; 1H NMR (500 MHz, CDCl3): δ7.40-7.20 [m, benzyl ArH], 6.28 [d, J=2.0 Hz, ArH(7)], 6.23 [d, J=2.0 Hz, ArH(5)], 3.66 [q, J=6.5 Hz, ArCHCH3 ], 3.82 [d, J=14.0 Hz, NCHaHbPh], 3.78 [s, O(6)CH3 ], 3.70 [s, O(8)CH3, 3.50 [ddq, J=10.5, 5.0 and 6.5 Hz, CHaHbCHCH3 ], 3.29 [d, J=14.0 Hz, NCHaHbPh], 2.63 [dd, J=17.0 and 10.5 Hz, CHaHbCH], 2.58 [dd, J=17.0 and 5.0 Hz, CHaHbCH], 1.30 [d, J=6.5 Hz, CH3 (1)], and 1.25 [d, J=6.5 Hz, CH3 (3)]; 13C NMR (75 MHz, CDCl3): δ158.5, 158.4, 141.7, 136.8, 128.4 [2C], 128.1 [3C], 126.4, 104.1, 96.4, 55.2, 55.1, 51.4, 49.8, 45.8, 32.6, 20.0, and 19.5; LRMS (EI): m/z 296 (M+ --CH3, 100), and 91 (44); IR (neat NaCl plates): 2965, 1605, and 1148 cm-1 ; Anal. calcd for C20H25NO2 : C, 77.14; H, 8.09. Found: C, 77.30; H, 8.06.
