Procedure
Potassium carbonate (92 g) and water (500 mL) were added to 1-isopropyl-6-methoxy-1,2,3,4-tetrahydroisoquinoline hydrochloride (86 g). The reaction mixture was extracted with EtOAc and dried over magnesium sulfate, and then the solvent was evaporated. To the resulting residue were added iPrOH (1100 mL) and (+)-mandelic acid (50 g), followed by stirring under heating at 95° C. for dissolution. The mixture was left to cool and stirred at room temperature overnight. The resulting solid was collected and repeatedly recrystallized three times using iPrOH to obtain 1-isopropyl-6-methoxy-1,2,3,4-tetrahydroisoquinoline (+)-mandelate (43 g) as a single enantiomer.
