Species of the Piper genus are amply known for their biological activities. This paper describes a new synthetic route for the preparation of piperamides and analogues, using as an efficient precursor, the Brazilian natural product safrole (1). The amides (6a-c) were obtained in 25-32% overall yield.
Three-component synthesis of (E)-α,β-unsaturated amides of the piperine family
Schobert,Siegfried,Gordon
, p. 2393 - 2397 (2007/10/03)
Selective formation of (E)-α,β-unsaturated amides by intermolecular three-component reaction between aldehydes, amines (1° or 2°) and ketenylidenetriphenylphosphorane (Ph3P=C=C=O) is described. Natural amides such as fagaramide and piperines could be prepared from immediately available educts. The method is shown to be extendable to the preparation of thioesters from thiols and aldehydes.
