Procedure

The title compound was prepared as follows. 8,9-Dimethoxy-2,3-methylenedioxy-5-[2-(N,N-dimethylamino)-1-methylethyl]-5H-dibenzo[c,h]1,6-naphthyridin-6-one (80 mg, 0.18 mmol; Example 7) in THF (150 mL) was added to LiAlH4 (50 mg, 1.3 mmol), and the mixture was stirred under nitrogen at reflux for 4h. The reaction was quenched by the sequential addition of water (5 drops), 10% NaOH (5 drops), and water (5 drops). The mixture was filtered through Celite and evaporated, and the crude mixture was chromatographed on silica in 1.0% methanol in chloroform to give 35 mg of the reduced product, in 45.4% yield; mp 153-154° C.; 1H NMR (CDCl3) δ 1.16 (d, 3H, J=8), 2.38 (dd, 2H, J=12.2, 8.0), 3.68-3.80 (m, 1), 3.88 (s, 3H), 4.24 (s, 2H), 6.16 (s, 2H), 6.64 (s, 1H), 7.24 (s, 1H), 7.40 (s, 2H), 7.62 (s, 1H), 8.88 (s, 1H); 13C NMR (CDCl3) δ: 17.7, 45.6, 46.0, 56.2, 56.4, 57.8, 64.2, 100.1, 101.7, 105.8, 106.4, 108.5, 120.5, 120.6, 123.6, 126.9, 143.4, 146.6, 147.7, 148.9, 149.5, 149.6, 150.0; HRMS calcd for C24H27N3O4H 422.2002; found 422.2081.
