Reaction Steps

To a suspension of 3-[4-(2-hydroxy-ethoxy)-3,5-dimethyl-phenyl]-6,8-dimethoxy-2H-isoquinolin-1-one (0.80 g, 2.16 mmol), isoindole-1,3-dione (0.35 g, 2.38 mmol), and triphenylphosphine (0.85 g, 3.25 mmol) in THF (30 mL), was added diethyl azodicarboxylate (0.56 g, 3.25 mmol) and the reaction mixture was stirred at room temperature for 16 hours. The solvent was evaporated in vacuo and the residue was washed with ether to give the title compound as an off-white solid. Yield: 1.11 g (crude). 1H NMR (400 MHz, CDCl3): δ 8.34 (s, 1H), 7.89 (m, 2H), 7.77 (m, 2H), 7.21 (s, 2H), 6.49 (br s, 2H), 6.44 (s, 1H), 4.16 (m, 2H), 4.08 (m, 2H), 3.97 (s, 3H), 3.89 (s, 3H), 2.25 (s, 6H). MS (ES) m/z: 499.06 (M+1) (100%).
