Procedure

A mixture of 1-(N-benzyloxycarbonyl-p-toluidinomethyl)-6,7-dimethoxy-1,2,3,4-tetrahydroisoquinoline hydrochloride (470 mg), acetic acid (4.7 ml) and conc. hydrochloric acid (4.7 ml) was heated for 1 hour at 100° C. The reaction mixture was concentrated to dryness under reduced pressure and the residue was dissolved in methanol. To the solution was added ethyl acetate and the precipitating crystals were collected by filtration to give 1-(p-toluidinomethyl)-6,7-dimethoxy-1,2,3,4-tetrahydroisoquinoline dihydrochloride (270 mg), mp 180° to 184° C.
