A mixture of 3.9 g of 3,4-dihydro-6,7-dimethoxy-1-[(3,4-dimethoxyphenyl)methyl]-4-isoquinoline carboxylic acid methyl ester, hydrochloride, 100 ml of decalin and 2 g of 10% palladium on carbon was stirred and refluxed for 2 hours. The cooled mixture was diluted with water, acidified with 6N hydrochloric acid, and the catalyst was removed by filtration. The aqueous solution was washed with ether, made basic with excess ammonium hydroxide, and the product was extracted with ethyl acetate, dried, and evaporated to give 4.1 g of crude 6,7-dimethoxy-1-[(3,4-dimethoxyphenyl)methyl]-4-isoquinolinecarboxylic acid methyl ester. Crystallization from ether provided the analytically pure material, mp 127°-128°.
