6-Methoxy-3-methylisoquinoline is a phenylacetone derivative that is used as an intermediate in the synthesis of quinazolines. It can be synthesized by reacting phenylacetone with methyl iodide, followed by reaction with phosphoryl chloride. 6-Methoxy-3-methylisoquinoline has been shown to be an effective inhibitor of the enzyme DNA gyrase, which causes cell death. It also possesses anti-inflammatory properties and may be useful for treating inflammatory conditions such as asthma and arthritis. The compound exhibits significant toxicity in mammals, so it should not be administered orally or by injection.
