Mild Installation of Piperidines on 4-Alkylpyridines.
Organic letters(2023)
Abstract
We report a mild method for the synthesis of scaffolds bearing 4-pyridine and 4-piperidine moieties joined by a substituted methylene group. The method exploits the latent nucleophilicity of 4-alkylpyridines and the inherent electrophilicity of pyridines. 4-Alkylpyridines are transformed into nucleophilic alkylidene dihydropyridines (ADHPs) through a soft enolization approach using triethyl amine and chloroformate reagents. HCl is used to promote the addition of ADHPs to pyridine, yielding an adduct bearing pyridine and protected dihydropyridine fragments. Transfer hydrogenation delivers the desired compounds in good yields.
