Reaction Steps

To a solution of 4-phenyl-4-{2-[4-(p-fluorophenyl)piperazin-1-yl]propyl}-1,2,3,4-tetrahydroisoquinoline (1.2 g) in methylene chloride (30 ml) was added acetic anhydride (0.33 ml) with ice-cooling and stirring and the mixture was further stirred at room temperature for 1 hour. The reaction mixture was then concentrated to dryness and the residue was purified by silica gel column chromatography (ethyl acetate-methanol=10:1) and treated with hydrochloric acid to provide the title compound (1.2 g) as white crystals.
