1-(Hydroxymethyl)isoquinoline → Isoquinoline-1-carbaldehyde

Participants

Reaction Steps

Isoquinolin-1-yl-methanol (123.7 mg) was dissolved in chloroform (6.2 ml) and then added with manganese dioxide (chemically processed product) (1.24 g), followed by stirring at room temperature for 30 minutes. The reaction solution was filtrated through Celite and the solvent was then distilled off. The residue was dried under vacuum, thereby obtaining the subject compound (103.9 mg) as a brown solid.
