Aqueous acid converts the imidazo[4,3‐α]isoindol‐5‐one 2 to a 4‐hydroxyisoquinolin‐1‐one ( 3 ). A related imidazoisoindolone 6 , obtained by photochemical cyclization of the Mannich base from 1,2,3,4‐tetrahydro‐isoquinoline, formaldehyde and phthalimide, gives a dibenzo[ a,g ]quinolizin‐8‐one ( 7 ) in a similar reaction.
