2-Benzyl-1-(1-methoxy-1-methylethyl)-1,2,3,4-tetrahydroisoquinoline → 1-(1-Methoxy-1-methylethyl)-1,2,3,4-tetrahydroisoquinoline

Participants

Reaction Steps

10% palladium-supported carbon (300 mg) was added to a solution of 2-benzyl-1-(1-methoxy-1-methylethyl)-1,2,3,4-tetrahydroisoquinoline (1.17 g) in MeOH (12 mL). The reaction material was stirred under a hydrogen atmosphere at room temperature for 8 hours. The reaction liquid was filtered through celite and the filtrate was concentrated under reduced pressure to obtain 1-(1-methoxy-1-methylethyl)-1,2,3,4-tetrahydroisoquinoline (770 mg).
