Application
Methyl 1,2,3,4-tetrahydroisoquinoline-7-carboxylate hydrochloride (CAS 220247-69-8) is a functionalized tetrahydroisoquinoline (THIQ) derivative featuring a methyl ester at the 7-position and supplied as a stable hydrochloride salt. This heterocyclic building block is widely used in medicinal chemistry and pharmaceutical research as a key intermediate for the synthesis of bioactive molecules targeting the central nervous system (CNS), including potential treatments for Parkinson’s disease, Alzheimer’s disease, depression, and anxiety. The ester group enables facile hydrolysis to the corresponding carboxylic acid, which can then undergo amide bond formation for rapid structure-activity relationship (SAR) studies. The THIQ core is a privileged scaffold found in many natural alkaloids and drug candidates, and this intermediate also serves as a precursor for kinase inhibitors, GPCR modulators, and neuroprotective agents. High purity ensures reproducible results in high-throughput screening and scalable GMP synthesis.
