[Synthesis of substituted 1-benzyl-1,2,3,4-tetrahydroisoquinolines]

Several derivatives of 1-benzyl-1,2,3,4-tetrahydroisoquinoline have been synthesized in order to evaluate their potential cardiovascular activities. These compounds, which can be related to Trimethoquinol and tetrahydropapaverin, showed no interesting activities in preliminary pharmacological screening.
