Procedure
Potassium hydroxide pellets (86%, 1.53 g, 23.4 mmol) were added to a solution of (RS,RS,RS)-2-(benzyl-tert-butoxycarbonyl-amino)-9,10-dimethoxy-1,3,4,6,7,11b-hexahydro-2H-pyrido[2,1-a]isoquinoline-3-carboxylic acid ethyl ester (1.20 g, 2.28 mmol) in water/tetrahydrofuran 1:1 (24 mL), and the mixture was heated at reflux for 72 h. After cooling, the solution was neutralized with 1 M aq. potassium phosphate buffer (pH 6.85) and extracted three times with dichloromethane. The organic layers were pooled, dried (MgSO4), and evaporated. The residue was suspended in toluene (24 mL) and treated with triethylamine (230 mg, 2.28 mmol) and diphenylphosphoryl azide (659 mg, 2.28 mmol). The reaction was kept at r.t. for 90 min and heated at 80° C. for 90 min, then benzyl alcohol (369 mg, 3.41 mmol) was added, and the reaction temperature was kept at 100° C. for 18 h. The reaction mixture was diluted with dichloromethane and washed with 10% aq. citric acid solution, 1 M aq. sodium hydroxide solution, and brine, dried (MgSO4), and evaporated. Chromatography (SiO2, heptane/EtOAc gradient) afforded the title compound (805 mg, 59%). Light yellow foam, MS (ISP) 602.3 (M+H)+.
