Procedure

N-(4-Aminophenethyl)-1,2,3,4-tetrahydro-6,7-dimethoxy-1-methylisoquinoline dihydrochloride (10.0 g, 0.025 m) was dissolved in 49% HBr (25 ml) maintained under nitrogen and heated to 120° for 18 hr. after which time a white solid had precipitated. The mixture was cooled and the solid slurried with isopropanol (50 ml), stirred for 1 hr., and the solid collected by filtration. The solid was washed three times with isopropanol and vacuum dried at 100° for 48 hr. to give 8.5 g N-(4-aminophenethyl)-1,2,3,4-tetrahydro-6,7-dihydroxy-1-methylisoquinoline dihydrobromide as an off-white solid, m.p. 275°-278°.
