Participants

Reaction Steps

2-Chloro-9,10-dimethoxy-6,7-dihydro-4H-pyrimido[6,1-a]isoquinolin-4-one, prepared according to Preparation 1, (38.5 g, 0.13 mol) and 2,4,6-trimethylaniline (52.7 g, 0.39 mol) in propan-2-ol (3 l) was stirred and heated at reflux, under nitrogen, for 24 h. After cooling to room temperature, the solution was evaporated in vacuo and the residue was purified by column chromatography on silica gel, eluting with CH2Cl2/MeOH, initially 98:2, changing to 96:4 once the product began to elute from the column. The title compound was obtained with a slight impurity, (just above the product on tlc). Yield 34.6 g, 67%.
