β¦ Synopsis
The known ylide 8-methoxyberberinephenolbetaine (2a) may be obtained either by ferricyanide oxidation 3 or by photolysis of berberine (AI. 4 The unmasking of the potential carboxylic ester at C-8 by hydration in wet ether, a solvent in which it is only slightly soluble, has been shown to furnish the enamine 3. Subsequent N-methylation and reduction of 2 affords a mixture of the phthalideisoquinolines(i)-U. and (*)-,3-hydrastine. 3
