9.1 g. (±)-5,6,6a,7-Tetrahydro-3-hydroxy-2,9,10-trimethoxy-5-methyl-4H-dibenz(de,g)isoquinoline (see Example 2) are reacted with phenyltrimethylammonium hydroxide in toluene/dimethylformamide in a manner analogous to that described in Example 7. When the methylation is finished, the reaction mixture is worked up in the manner described in Example 7. By chromatography of the crude product on silica gel (elution with chloroform +1% triethylamine) and crystallisation from chloroform-diethyl ether, there is obtained (±)-5,6,6a,7-tetrahydro-2,3,9,10-tetramethoxy-5-methyl-4H-dibenz(de,g)isoquinoline in the form of beige crystals; m.p. 170°-177° C.
