Treatment of N-tosyl-1-aryl-1,2,3,4-tetrahydro-isoquinolines or N-tosyl-1-aryl-1, 2,3,4-tetrahydro-beta-carbolines with a strong base such as NaOH or KOH at 70 degrees C in dimethylsulfoxide (DMSO) produced 1-aryl-3,4-dihydroisoquinolines or 1-aryl-3,4-dihydro-beta-carbolines in good yields via mild and regiospecific beta-eliminations. A dramatic solvent effect was observed, DMSO was crucial for the reactions. The temperature is also crucial for the reactions and should be kept between 60 and 80 degrees C.
