Procedure

p-Chloroanilinoacetaldehyde diethyl acetal (486 mg) and 3,4-dihydroxyphenethylamine hydrochloride (378 mg) were added to a mixture of n-butyl alcohol (4 ml) and water (0.4 ml) and then the mixture was refluxed for 3.5 hours. The above-mentioned acetal (0.24 g) was further added thereto and the resultant mixture was refluxed for 3 hours. The reaction mixture was treated in a conventional manner to give 1-(p-chloroanilinomethyl)-6,7-dihydroxy-1,2,3,4-tetrahydroisoquinoline hydrochloride. This product was identified by thin-layer chromatography on silica gel [Developing solvent: (n-butyl alcohol:acetic acid:water=8:1:1)] with an authentic sample, mp 91° to 93° C., which was obtained by reacting 1-(N-benzyloxycarbonyl-p-chloroanilinomethyl)-6,7-dihydroxy-1,2,3,4-tetrahydroisoquinoline hydrochloride obtained in Example 1(D) with conc. hydrochloric acid and acetic acid.
