The present invention relates to a process for the production of (S)-1,2,3,4-tetrahydro-6,7-dialkoxy-3-isoquinolinecarboxylic acid compounds (1) and their derivatives from Levodopa (L-Dopa). The ultimately prepared compounds are used as intermediates for, but not limited to, the preparation of substituted derivatives of 1,2,3,4-tetrahydro-6,7-dialkoxy-3-isoquinolinecarboxylic acid wherein R1is hydrogen, lower alkyl, C2-C12 acyl, or R1O together are methylenedioxy; R2is hydrogen, alkyl, substituted alkyl, alkenyl, substituted alkenyl, aryl, substituted aryl, aralkyl or substituted aralkyl group; and R3is hydrogen, C2-C12 acyl group, benzyl, alkoxylcarbonyl group, or aralkoxyl carbonyl group.
