17.8 g (74.3 mmol) of the compound (2) thus obtained was added to 50 ml of water, to which 100 ml of methylene chloride was added. This solution was made basic with 25% aqueous solution of sodium hydroxide under water-cooling. The solution was separated and the aqueous layer was extracted with 20 ml of methylene chloride. The obtained methylene chloride layers were combined, washed with 30 ml of water, dried over anhydrous magnesium sulfate and then concentrated under vacuum to obtain 15.06 g of 8-methoxy-6,7-methylenedioxyisoquinoline (3) (yield 99.7%). The product thus obtained was recrystallized from ethylacetate-n-hexane, m.p. 144°-5° C. IR and NMR spectra of the resultant product are listed below. ##STR48##
