Procedure
A mixture of 5,14-dihydrobenz[5,6]isoindolo[2,1-b]isoquinoline-8,13-dione (0.96 g) (Intermediate 1), benzyl triethylammonium chloride (0.16 g), potassium carbonate (2.20 g) and iodomethane (0.45 ml) in acetonitrile (100 ml) was stirred and heated under reflux for 4 h. A further portion of iodomethane (0.5 ml) was added and the mixture was stirred at 80° C. for 1 h. The mixture was cooled to room temperature, diluted with dichloromethane (250 ml) and filtered. The filtrate was concentrated in vacuo and the residue was purified on preparative plates eluting five times with chloroform to give the title compound (98 mg) m.p. 215°-218° C. λmax (in CHCl3) 246.5 nm (ε51,050), 266.5 nm (ε18,250) and 366.55 nm (ε3,700).
