Reaction Steps

To 5-bromo-1-isopropyl-8-methoxy-1,2,3,4-tetrahydroisoquinoline hydrochloride (3.0 g) were added EtOH (30 mL), triethylamine (1.3 mL), and 10% palladium-supported carbon (0.30 g), followed by stirring under a hydrogen atmosphere for 2 hours. The reaction liquid was filtered through celite and the solvent was evaporated. An aqueous 1 M NaOH solution was added to the reaction liquid, followed by extraction with EtOAc. The extract was washed with saturated brine, and then dried over magnesium sulfate. The solvent was evaporated and the resulting residue was dissolved in EtOAc (30 mL). 4 M HCl/EtOAc (5 mL) was added to the mixture, and the precipitated solid was collected to obtain 1-isopropyl-8-methoxy-1,2,3,4-tetrahydroisoquinoline hydrochloride (2.2 g).
