Formic acid at 350 deg C converts pyridine and 4-methylpyridine into products deriving from both αβ and βγ C-C bond cleavages of the pyridine ring.

In its reactions with the title compounds, formic acid variously acts as a formylating, methylating, and reducing agent. Both pyridine and piperidine are converted in significant amounts into 1-methyl-, 1-ethyl-, 1-propyl- and 1-pentyl-piperidines. Of the N-alkyl groups, isotopic labeling shows that only N-methyl derives from the formic acid, while the N-ethyl and N-propyl arise from heterocyclic ring C-C bond scission by retro-vinylogous-bis-aza-Aldol reactions. Detailed analysis of the products for pyridine, piperidine, and their 4-methyl derivatives, reacted separately and mixed, supports mechanisms in which a piperidine adds 1,2 to a pyridinium cation, or to a di- or tetra-hydropyridine, to initiate reaction sequences leading to the product slates found.
FORMATION OF SULFUR COMPOUNDS IN THE HYDRODENITROGENATION OF PIPERIDINE, PYRIDINE, 1-PENTYLAMINE AND 1-PENT-4-ENYLAMINE ON A NICKEL-TUNGSTEN CATALYST IN THE PRESENCE OF HYDROGEN SULFIDE

Hydrogenations of piperidine, pyridine, 1-pentylamine, and 1-pent-4-enylamine were carried out in an autoclave at 300 deg C on a sulfidized nickel-tungsten catalyst using either pure hydrogen or a mixture of hydrogen with hydrogen sulfide.Hydrogen sulfide was found to raise the degree of conversion of the starting substances and accelerate the hydrodenitrogenation by formation of sulfur compounds; 1-pentanethiol, di(1-pentyl)sulfide, 2-methylthiacyclopentane, thiacyclohexane and other sulfur compounds were detected in the reaction mixtures in the presence of hydrogensulfide.A reaction pathway is suggested of the hydrodenitrogenation of piperidine in the presence of hydrogen sulfide, accounting for the favourable effect of the latter on the hydrodenitrogenation of nitrogen compounds.
