Approach to 3-(Cyclo)alkylpiperidines through ‘sp3–sp3 via sp2–sp3’ Coupling
摘要:
The idea of introducing (cyclo)alkyl substituents at the C-3 atom of the piperidine ring, that is, formal sp(3)-sp(3) retrosynthetic disconnection, is implemented through a two-step reaction sequence including directed ortho metalation of a pyridine derivative and the subsequent quenching with a carbonyl compound, followed by catalytic hydrogenation. This robust but very efficient method allows for multigram preparation of sp(3)-rich 3-(cyclo)alkylpiperidines, which are valuable building blocks for medicinal chemistry and other areas.
