Participants

Reaction Steps

A solution of 3-bromomethyl-4-(4-fluorophenyl)-2-isopropyl-1-oxo-1,2-dihydroisoquinoline (5.8 g) in toluene (120 ml) was treated with triphenylphosphine (4.1 g), and the resulting mixture was stirred and heated at reflux for 1 hour, during which time a white crystalline solid precipitated from the solution. The solid was filtered off, and washed with petroleum ether (b.p. 60°-80° C.), to give [4-(4-fluorophenyl)-2-isopropyl-1-oxo-1,2-dihydroisoquinolin-3-yl]methyltriphenylphosphonium bromide, in the form of a white crystalline solid (9.64 g), m.p. 274° C.
