Reaction Steps

A mixture of 13-benzyl-9,10-dimethoxy-5,6-dihydro[1,3]dioxolo[4,5-g]isoquino[3,2-a]isoquinolin-7-ylium; bromide (0.9 g, 1.8 mmol) and 30% sodium hydroxide in water (150 mL) was refluxed for 16 h. The precipitate was collected and treated with hot 3% hydrochloric acid. The residue was re-crystallized from ethanol to afford 13-benzyl-9,10-dimethoxy-5,6-dihydro-[1,3]dioxolo[4,5-g]isoquino[3,2-a]isoquinolin-8-one (180 mg. 22%) LC/MS m/e calcd for C27H23NO5 (M+H)+: 442.49, observed: 442.1.
