Vorschrift

6-Chloro-1,3-Oxazino[5,6-d]soquinoline was prepared by the procedure of Miyoko Toyama and Hirotaka Otomasu starting from 1-chloro-4-hydroxy isoquinoline. The starting material: 1-chloro-4-hydroxy isoquinoline (Example 226c) was prepared by the synthetic sequence shown above. MCPBA oxidation of 4-methoxy isoquinoline (Example 222a) was carried as usual to give 79.1% of the corresponding N-oxide (Example 226a). The material was converted into the 1-chloro derivative immediately afterward in POCl3 to give the chloride (Example 226b) in essentially quantitative yield. The crude 1-chloro-4-methoxy isoquinoline was de-methylated in BBr3 at room temperature to give the corresponding 1-chloro-4-hydroxy isoquinoline (Example 226c) after treating the crude BBr3 mixture with anhydrous methanol at room temperature, followed by evaporation to get rid of excess of borate residues. The reaction of Miyoko Toyama and Hirotaka Otomasu gave 266 mg of 6-chloro-1,3-oxazino[5,6-c]isoquinoline (Example 226d, 62.3%) overall yield from 300 mg of 4-methoxy isoquinoline in 4 steps.
