Participants

Reaction Steps

5-Chloro-2-methoxy-4-methylbenzoic acid (0.202 g, 1 mmol), 1-(3-dimethyl aminopropyl)-3-ethylcarbodiimide hydrochloride (0.200 g, 1 mmol) and 1-hydroxy-benzotriazole (0.155 g, 25 mmol) were dissolved in dry DMF (10 ml) and stirred at room temperature under argon for 25 mins before 5-amino-2-methyl-1,2,3,4-tetrahydroisoquinoline (0.163 g, 1 mmol) was added. The mixture was then stirred for 24 under argon at room temperature. The DMF was removed in vacuo and the residue suspended in ethyl acethate and washed with water. The insoluble white precipithate was filtered off, washed with water then dried to afford the title compound (149 mg).
