Reaction Steps

Treat 1-benzyl-6,7-dimethoxy-1,2,3,4-tetrahydroisoquinoline (10 g) with 48% HBr (100 mL) and heat the mixture at reflux under nitrogen for 2 h. Cool the mixture to room temperature and allow crystals to form overnight. Collect the crystals and wash with cold ethanol to give 7.5 g of the title compound as its HBr salt, mp=233°-236° C.
