To a solution of 6,7-dimethoxy-1-methylisoquinolin-3-ol CCH 18060 (158 mg, 721 μmol) in toluene (15 mL) in a 20 mL microwave vial equipped with a magnetic stirrer was added a 2 N aq. KOH solution (0.86 mL, 1.72 mmol) at RT followed by MDE 32016 (185 mg, 864 μmol) and the mixture was stirred at 160° C. for 1.5 h under microwave irradiation. After cooling to RT, the mixture was diluted with H2O (10 mL) before extraction with EtOAc (50 mL). The organic phase was isolated and the aqueous phase was further extracted with CH2Cl2 (50 mL). Both organic phases were washed with brine (10 mL), combined, dried over Na2SO4, filtered and concentrated at 40° C. under vacuum. Purification by column chromatography (SiO2, eluent CH2Cl2:MeOH=100:0 to 94:6) gave 48 mg of 4-(isoquinolin-5-ylmethyl)-6,7-dimethoxy-1-methylisoquinolin-3-ol. The free base was dissolved in MeOH (3 mL) in a 25 mL round-bottomed flask equipped with a magnetic stirrer before addition of a 0.09 M HCl solution in MeOH (4.5 mL). The reaction mixture solution was stirred for 5 min at RT and concentrated at 40° C. under vacuum to afford 4-(isoquinolin-5-ylmethyl)-6,7-dimethoxy-1-methylisoquinolin-3-ol dihydrochloride 22 as a brown solid (58 mg, 19% yield).
