To a solution of 6,7-dimethoxy-1-methylisoquinolin-3-ol CCH 18060 (232 mg, 1.06 mmol) in toluene (4.5 mL) in a 10 mL microwave vial equipped with a magnetic stirrer was added a 2 N aq. KOH solution (0.55 mL, 1.10 mmol) at RT followed by 2-(bromomethyl)naphthalene (252 mg, 1.14 mmol) and the mixture was stirred at 110° C. for 15 min under microwave irradiation. After cooling to RT, the mixture was diluted with H2O (5 mL) before extraction with CH2Cl2 (50 mL). The organic layer was washed with brine (10 mL), dried over Na2SO4, filtered and concentrated at 40° C. under vacuum. Purification by column chromatography (SiO2, eluent CH2Cl2:MeOH=100:0 to 95:5) gave 210 mg of 6,7-dimethoxy-1-methyl-4-(naphthalen-2-ylmethyl)isoquinolin-3-ol as a yellow solid. The free base was dissolved in MeOH (10 mL) in a 25 mL round-bottomed flask equipped with a magnetic stirrer before addition of a 0.15 M HCl solution in MeOH (8 mL). The reaction mixture was stirred for 5 min at RT and concentrated at 40° C. under vacuum to afford after drying 6,7-dimethoxy-1-methyl-4-(naphthalen-2-ylmethyl)isoquinolin-3-ol hydrochloride 17 as a yellow solid (230 mg, 55% yield).
