2- piperidines preparation

Only one, six-carbon unit for chain lengthening has been studied. This is E-(N-2,5-hexadienyl)piperidine, prepared as described earlier in this chapter. This compound reacts with bromobenzene to give a 55% yield of the 6-phenyl derivative (8). The reaction with Z-... 

A need for a synthetic entry toward simple and structurally complex alkaloids prompted development of methodology to prepare a variety of azabicyclo[n.3.1] alkenes in good yields utilizing protected 2,6-cA-diaIkenyl piperidines, prepared from glutarimide or 4-methoxy pyridine and catalyzed by (2a) and (4a) (equation 1)." " ... 

This alkaloid is a crystalline solid, m.p. 89 , [a] —56.75° (ethanol) that was first assigned the empirical formula C17HJ4O2N (83), which was later corrected to C14H21ON (87). It forms a hydrochloride, m.p. 205°. The infrared absorption spectrum of the base and that of one of the forms of the diastereoisomer of l-methyl-2-(j8-hydroxy- 8-pheny-lethyl)-piperidine, prepared from phenyl-(a-pyridyl)-acetylene, were identical (88). 

The a-propyl-piperidine prepared in this way differed from coniine in being inactive. By the crystallization of the tartrate of the base two optically active forms were obtained the dextrorotatory form proved to be identical with the natural alkaloid. Coniine is a colorless liquid which boils at 167° it possesses a penetrating odor and is poisonous. 

Colourless liquid with a characteristic ammo-niacal smell m.p. 9 C, b.p. 106°C. Miscible with water. It is present in pepper as the alkaloid piperine from which it can be obtained by healing with alkali. It can also be prepared by the reduction of pyridine, either electrolytically or by other means. Piperidine is a strong base, behaving like the aliphatic amines. 

Ootonic acid may be prepared by condensing acetaldehyde with malonic acid in pyridine solution in the presence of a trace of piperidine (Doebner reaction see discussion following Section IV,123). 

Trimethylene dibromide (Section 111,35) is easily prepared from commercial trimethj lene glycol, whilst hexamethylene dibromide (1 O dibromohexane) is obtained by the red P - Br reaction upon the glycol 1 6-hexanediol is prepared by the reduction of diethyl adipate (sodium and alcohol lithium aluminium hydride or copper-chromium oxide and hydrogen under pressure). Penta-methylene dibromide (1 5-dibromopentane) is readily produced by the red P-Brj method from the commercially available 1 5 pentanediol or tetra-hydropyran (Section 111,37). Pentamethylene dibromide is also formed by the action of phosphorus pentabromide upon benzoyl piperidine (I) (from benzoyl chloride and piperidine) ... 

Monosubstitution of acetylene itself is not easy. Therefore, trimethylsilyl-acetylene (297)[ 202-206] is used as a protected acetylene. The coupling reaction of trimethylsilylacetylene (297) proceeds most efficiently in piperidine as a solvent[207]. After the coupling, the silyl group is removed by treatment with fluoride anion. Hexabromobenzene undergoes complete hexasubstitution with trimethylsilylacetylene to form hexaethynylbenzene (298) after desilylation in total yield of 28% for the six reactions[208,209]. The product was converted into tris(benzocyclobutadieno)benzene (299). Similarly, hexabutadiynylben-zene was prepared[210j. 

This can be prevented by supplying external electron pairs to satisfy the coordination needs of titanium. The strong base piperidine serves well, and a wide variety of compounds, Ti(OR) Cl4 CgH QNH, can be prepared (59). Alcohols and pyridine are also effective. 

Diaminoanthraquinone is an important intermediate for vat dyes and disperse dyes, and is prepared by oxidizing leuco-l,4-diaminoanthraquinone with nitrobenzene in the presence of piperidine. An improved process has been reported (45). 

The use of piperidine starting materials for preparation of perhydro derivatives is also seen in the reaction of the ethoxymethyleneaminonitrile (119) with sodium hydrosulfide to give (120) (66AG(E)308). 

Much interesting work has been done in the last ten years on the bridging of pyrrole and piperidine rings. Early in their work on this subject Clemo and Metcalfe (1937) prepared quinuclidine (V) by the reduction of 3-ketoquinuclidine (IV), the latter resulting from the hydrolysis and decarboxylation of the product (III) of a Dieckmann internal alkylation, applied to ethyl piperidine-l-acetate-4-carboxylate (II), itself made by condensing ethyl piperidine-4-carboxylate (I) with ethyl chloroacetate. 

These substances differ structurally from niquidine (VI) by the substitution in the latter of a propylidene chain at C. Ainley and King having already found that d- and Z-dihydroquinicinols (VIII) which are y-substituted piperidine derivatives, were inactive, it appeared from these two sets of results that the strongly basic centre should not be separated by more than two carbon atoms frorn the point of attachment to the quinoline nucleus. King and Work therefore prepared a series of... 

The dimethyl acetal (94) is readily prepared from the 22-aldehyde (93) by direct reaction with methanol in the presence of hydrogen chloride. Ena-mines (95) are formed without a catalyst even with the poorly reactive piperidine and morpholine.Enol acetates (96) are prepared by refluxing with acetic anhydride-sodium acetate or by exchange with isopropenyl acetate in pyridine.Reaction with acetic anhydride catalyzed by boron trifluoride-etherate or perchloric acid gives the aldehyde diacetate. 

The piperidine, pyrrolidine, and morpholine enamines of cyclohexanone substituted in the 3-position by methyl, phenyl, and l-butyl have been prepared (49). The complexity of the NMR spectra in the ethylenic hydrogen region indicated a mixture of isomeric enamines. Estimation of the per cent of each isomer by examination of the NMR spectra was not possible, nor were the isomeric enamines separable by vapor-phase chromatography. 

This method was extended to the preparation of aminonitropropenes, but only piperidine and morpholine of the several secondary amines studied were found effective. 

Bohlmann et al. (118-121) observed that an infrared absorption band between 2700-2800 cm is characteristic of a piperidine derivative possessing at least two axial carbon-hydrogen bonds in antiperiplanar position to the free-electron pair on the nitrogen atom. The possibility of forming an enamine by dehydrogenation can be determined by this test. Compounds which do not fulfill this condition cannot usually be dehydrogenated (50, 122,123). Thus, for example, yohimbine can be dehydrogenated by mercuric acetate,whereas reserpine or pseudoyohimbine do not react (124). The quinolizidine (125) enamines (Scheme 4), l-azabicyclo(4,3,0)-nonane, l-azabicyclo(5,3,0)decane, l-azabicyclo(5,4,0)undecane, and l-azabicyclo(5,5,0)dodecane have been prepared in this manner (112,126). 

This Fmoc analog is prepared from the chloroformate, O-succinimide, or p-nitrophenyl carbonate and is cleaved with 10% piperidine in 1 1 6M guanidine/IPA. It was designed to interact strongly on a column of porous graphitized carbon so as to aid in the purification of peptides after cleavage from the resin. 

When the Ac group is removed (20% piperidine/DMF or 5% hydrazine/DMF), it becomes the Hmb group that is used to improve solubility and prevent aspar-tamide formation and is readily cleaved with TFA. The related 2-Fmoc-4-methoxybenzyl group has also been prepared and used in peptide synthesis. ... 

Eda and Kurth applied a similar solid-phase combinatorial strategy for synthesis of pyridinium, tetrahydropyridine, and piperidine frameworks as potential inhibitors of vesicular acetylcholine transporter. One member of the small library produced was prepared from amino-functionalized trityl resin reacting with a 4-phenyl Zincke salt to give resin-bound product 62 (Scheme 8.4.21). After ion exchange and cleavage from the resin, pyridinium 63 was isolated. Alternatively, borohydride reduction of 62 led to the 1,2,3,6-tetrahydropyridine 64, which could be hydrogenated to the corresponding piperidine 65. 

Marazano and co-workers have used the Zincke reaction extensively to prepare chiral templates for elaboration to substituted piperidine and tetrahydropyridine natural products and medicinal agents. For example, 3-picoline was converted to Zincke salt 40 by reaction with 2,4-dinitrochlorobenzene in refluxing acetone, and treatment with R- -)-phenylglycinol in refluxing n-butanol generated the chiral pyridinium 77. Reduction to... 

The preparations of over two hundred tetrahydro- and octahydro-pyrido[4,3-d]pyrimidines from piperidines or from purely aliphatic starting materials are described in the patent literature. Fully aromatic examples of the system have been prepared from pyridines and pyrimidines. 

The same amino compounds also underwent reactions with a series of 3-cyano-4-imino- and 3-cyano-4-oxo-piperidines to yield 4-amino-5,0,7,8-tetrahydropyrido[4,3-d]pyrimidines. . A tetra-hydropyTido[4,3-prepared from 4-amino-l-henzyl-3-cyano-d -piperidine (134) hy a simple one-step preparation. This method is of general application for the preparation of fused pyrimidines and previous papers in this field are listed by Taylor. ...
