The resulting tetrahydroisoquinoline derivative of formula 30 is then esterified with a suitable lower alkanol by standard means to produce a tetrahydroisoquinoline ester of formula 31 (step 2). For example, 3-carboxy-6,7-dimethoxy-N-methyl-1,2,3,4-tetrahydroisoquinoline (30) is treated with HCl in EtOH to produce 3-carboethoxy-6,7-dimethoxy-N-methyl-1,2,3,4-tetrahydroisoquinoline (31).
