Procedure

A solution of 2-methyl-4-(3,5-dimethoxyphenyl)-4-(phenylsulfanyl)-7-methoxy-1,4-dihydro-3(2H)-isoquinolone (2.4 g) and nickel chloride hexahydrate (8.8 g) in methanol-tetrahydro-furan (3:1, 100 ml) was cooled to 0° C. Sodium borohydride (4.2 g) was added in small portions during 30 minutes at a temperature not exceeding 5° C. The slurry was filtered and the filtrate concentrated to dryness. The residue was partitioned between dichloromethane (200 ml) and aqueous sodium hydroxide (2M, 200 ml). The organic phase was dried and concentrated to dryness leaving crude 2-methyl-4-(3,5-dimethoxyphenyl)-7-methoxy-1,4-dihydro-3(2H)-isoquinolinone (1.3 g). Crystallization from methanol afforded the pure compound, m.p. 137-139
