p-Anisoyl chloride → HCID 69475072, compound

Participants

Reaction Steps

4-Methoxy-benzoyl chloride (2.35 g) was added dropwise to a solution of 6-methoxy-1,2,3,4-tetrahydro-isoquinoline (0.75 g) and triethylamine (1.54 mL) in dichloromethane (40 mL) at 0° C. After 18 h at room temperature, the reaction was washed with 1N NaOH (2×50 mL), then water (2×50 mL). The organic extract was dried over sodium sulfate, filtered through celite and concentrated. The (6-methoxy-3,4-dihydro-1H-isoquinolin-2-yl)-(4-methoxy-phenyl)-methanone (0.95 g) product was obtained after purification by chromatography on silica gel (eluant: methylene chloride).
