7-Bromo-1,2-dihydroisoquinolin-3(4H)-one

Conditions: temp:100.01; pressure:0.00; stir:; See reaction.notes.procedure_details.

Procedure: To a suspension of 7-bromo-1,4-dihydro-2H-isoquinolin-3-one (450 mg, 2 mmol) in 1 mL of N,N-dimethylformamide is added N,N-dimethylformamide dimethylacetal (954 mg, 8 mmol). The reaction mixture is heated in a microwave at 100° C. for 10 min. The reaction mixture is then filtered and washed with N,N-dimethylformamide to give 356 mg of 7-bromo-4-dimethylaminomethylene-1,4-dihydro-2H-isoquinolin-3-one. The reaction mixture is then filtered washed with N,N-dimethylformamide
