Procedure
To a suspension of (R)-2-(5-nitro-1-oxoisoquinolin-2(1H)-yl)propyl acetate (5.34 g, 0.0184 mol) in ethanol (100 mL, 2 mol) was added ammonium chloride (9.840 g, 0.1840 mol) in water (100 mL, 6 mol). The reaction heated at 85° C. and iron (4.11 g, 0.0736 mol) was added in four portions 3 minutes apart. The reaction started turning dark and became completely brown. After 2 hours, the flask was removed from the oil bath and 150 ml of ethyl acetate was added in the flask. The organic layer was decanted and the aqueous layer was extracted again with ethyl acetate. The combined organic layers were dried over sodium sulfate and concentrated under reduced pressure to give a bright yellow oil.
