We have developed a number of efficient protocols for the facile synthesis of 1,2,3,4-tetrahydroisoquinolin-1-ones. This synthetic methodology allowed concise and efficient exploration of the SAR in all areas of the molecule. A number of these methods proved to be versatile, efficient and amenable t

โฆ Synopsis
When N-chloroacetyl-3-hydroxybenzylamine (37) in aqueous acetonitrile was irradiated, both ortho and para photocyclizations with reference to the OH group occurred to give 7-and 5 -hydroxy -3 -oxo -1,2,3,4tetrahydroisoquinolines ($2, 53). Similarly, 1 -methylisoquinoline derivatives (54, 55) were synthesized. N-Chloroacetyl -3,5 -dihydroxybenzylamine (39) gave a single photoproduct, 5,7 -dihydroxy -3 -oxo -1,2,3,4 -tetrahydroisoquinoline (56). These photocyclizations were smoothly extended to the synthesis of 1 -benzyl, 1 -(4'-methoxybenzyl)-and 1 -(3',4',5' -trimethoxybenzyl) -isoquinoline derivatives ($8-64).
