Procedure

A mixture of 1.50 g of 3-cyclopropylmethyl-9-methoxy-2,3-dihydro-1H-benzofuro[3,2-e]isoquinolin-4-(7aH)-one (III; ##STR26## R2 =OMe), 10 mL of methyl acrylate and 0.01 g of phenothiazine, contained in an evacuated and sealed Carius tube, was heated to 130° for 6 hours. Removal of the excess methyl acrylate gave 2.17 g of 3:1 mixture of two isomers of 3-cyclopropylmethyl-9-methoxy-5-methoxycarbonyl-1,2,5,6,7,7a-hexahydro-4a,7-ethenobenzofuro[3,2-e]isoquinolin-4(3H)-one (IV; ##STR27## R2 =OMe, R3 =CO2CH3). 220 MHz NMR spectroscopy showed that the major isomer had the same stereochemistry as the corresponding methyl vinyl ketone adduct (Example 7). The mixture was subjected to catalytic hydrogenation (30 mL tetrahydrofuran, 1.04 g of 10% Pd/C, room temperature, overnight) and the product so obtained was hydrolyzed by heating under reflux with aqueous methanolic sodium hydroxide followed by acidification to give 1.52 g of 5-carboxy-3-cyclopropylmethyl-9-methoxy-1,2,5,6,7,7a-hexahydro-4a,7-ethanobenzofuro[3,2-e]isoquinolin-4(3H)-one (V; ##STR28## R2 =OMe, R3 =CO2H) as a mixture of two isomers. Reduction with borane methyl sulfide and demethylation as described in Examples 1 and 2 gave 1.72 g of crude product which on crystallization from dimethylformamide gave 0.62 g of a single isomer of 3-cyclopropylmethyl-5-hydroxymethyl-1,2,3,4,5,6,7,7a-octahydro-4a,7-ethanobenzofuro[3,2-e]isoquinolin-9-ol, m.p. 187°-190°.
