Procedure

A mixture of 7-benzyl-5,6,7,8-tetrahydro-2-(methoxymethyl)pyrido[3,4-d]pyrimidin-4(3H)-one (2.01 g, 7.04 mmol), phosphorus oxychloride (5.16 mL, 56.35 mmol) and N,N-dimethylaniline (0.89 mL, 7.04 mmol) in 1,2-dichloroethane was heated to 80° C. for two h. The mixture was allowed to cool to r.t. and poured over crushed ice (100 mL). The mixture was made basic (pH=˜8) by the addition of saturated aqueous sodium bicarbonate and extracted with ethyl acetate (200 mL). The organic layer was dried over magnesium sulfate and concentrated to leave a dark oil which was purified by silica gel chromatography (ethyl acetate/hexane gradient) to yield 1.76 g (82%) of the title compound as a brown oil.
