Reaction Steps

A solution of 6-chloro-2'-(N-methylthiocarbamyl)spiro[benzofuran-2(3H),4'(2'H)-isoquinoline] (12.0 g) and iodomethane (7.4 g) in methanol (150 ml) and ethanol (100 ml) is heated under reflux for four hours. Removal of solvents in vacuo yields a solid which, upon trituration with ether, yields product as a solid (16.4 g, 99%). An analytical sample is recrystallized from ethyl acetate/methanol to yield a white solid, 181°-182° (dec.).
