Synthesis of New 1,2,3,4-Tetrahydroisoquinoline Derivatives. 2-(2,3,3-Trimethyl-1,2,3,4-tetrahydroisoquinolin-1-yl)anilines

Resumo

A four-step procedure has been developed for the synthesis of new 2-(2,3,3-trimethyl-1,2,3,4-tetrahydroisoquinolin-1-yl)anilines by acylation of 2-(3,3-dimethyl-3,4-dihydroisoquinolin-1-yl)anilines at the amino group with isobutyryl chloride, reduction of the endocyclic C=N bond in N-[2-(3,3-dimethyl-3,4-dihydroisoquinolin-1-yl)phenyl]isobutyramides, N-alkylation of N-[2-(3,3-dimethyl-1,2,3,4-tetrahydroisoquinolin-1-yl)phenyl]isobutyramides to N-[2-(2,3,3-trimethyl-1,2,3,4-tetrahydroisoquinolin-1-yl)phenyl]isobutyramides, and acid hydrolysis of the latter.
