Reaction Steps

A solution of 9,10-dimethoxy-2-chloro-6,7-dihydro-4H-pyrimido(6,1-a)isoquinolin-4-one (3.0 g) and tert.-butylamine (10.0 ml) in chloroform (75 ml) is heated under reflux for 16 hours. The solvent is evaporated under reduced pressure and the residue triturated with a dilute solution of sodium hydroxide to give a white precipitate. The precipitate is filtered, dried and converted into its hydrochloride by treating it in solution in ethanol with hydrochloric acid. The hydrochloride is crystallized from ethanol-ether mixture, yield 3.0 g, m.p. 265°-270° C.
