Participants

Reaction Steps

1-sec-Butylisoquinoline and N-hydroxymethyl dichloroacetamide were reacted in the same way as in step (b) of Example 18 to afford 1-sec-butyl-5-dichloroacetylaminomethylisoquinoline. The product was reacted successively in the same way as in steps (c), (d), (e) and (f) of Example 18 to obtain 1-sec-butylisoquinoline-5-acetonitrile. The product was treated in the same way as in Example 3 to afford 1-sec-butylisoquinoline-5-acetic acid as an oil.
