title: {(1R,3S)-2-Benzyl-6,7-dimeth-oxy-1-phenyl-1,2,3,4-tetra-hydro-isoquinolin-3-yl}diphenyl-methanol.
abstract: In the title compound, C(37)H(35)NO(3), a precursor to novel chiral catalysts, the N-containing six-membered ring assumes a half-chair conformation. Inter-molecular C-H⋯O hydrogen bonds link the mol-ecules in the crystal structure.
