Reaktionsschritte

Into a 500-mL 3-necked round-bottom flask, was placed a solution of 2-((2,4-dichlorobenzyl)(methyl)amino)-1-(3-bromophenyl)ethanol (25 g, 64.27 mmol, 1.00 equiv) in dichloromethane (100 mL). This was followed by the addition of sulfuric acid (100 mL) dropwise with stirring at 0-5° C. The resulting solution was stirred for 4 h at room temperature. The resulting solution was diluted with of ice water. The pH value of the solution was adjusted to 8 with sodium hydroxide. The resulting solution was extracted with 3×300 mL of dichloromethane and the organic layers combined and dried over anhydrous sodium sulfate and concentrated under vacuum. The crude product was re-crystallized from petroleum ether:ethyl acetate in the ratio of 8:1. This resulted in 15 g (63%) of 4-(3-bromophenyl)-6,8-dichloro-2-methyl-1,2,3,4-tetrahydroisoquinoline as a white solid.
