โฆ Synopsis
Oxidation of 7,8-dimethoxy-l,2,3,4-tetrahydroisquinoline with potassium permanganate in acetone afforded 7,8-dimethoxy-3,4-dihydroisoquinoline as the primary product. Hence, oxidation of the appropriate secondary nonphenolic 7,8-dioxygenated tetrahydroisoquinoline alkaloid is thus a facile method for the generation of the corresponding imine. The imine is not easily prepared oia the usual synthetic route involving ring closure of P-phenethylamine derivatives.
