The intramolecular anti-Markovnikov hydroamination of 1-(3-aminopropyl)vinylarenes in the presence of a readily available rhodium catalyst to form 3-arylpiperidines is reported. In contrast to intermolecular hydroamination of vinylarenes, which occurred in high yields in the presence of rhodium catalysts containing DPEphos, the intramolecular reaction occurred in high yield in the presence of [Rh(COD)(DPPB)]BF4 as catalyst. Reactants with substituents β to the nitrogen occurred in high yield, and these reactions formed 3,5-disubstituted piperidines with high diastereomeric excess. The regiochemistry of these cyclizations contrasts with the regiochemistry of intramolecular hydroaminations catalyzed by lanthanide complexes, group III metal complexes, and platinum complexes, all of which have been reported to form cyclization products from Markovnikov addition.

From bipyridines to tobacco alkaloids and related compounds

Starting from structural considerations which led to the hypothesis that a chemical relationship could exist between two families of natural compounds (mainly pyridinic and pyrrolidinic alkaloids), experiments were carried out in order to establish a correlation route between the two studied classes. Of special interest was the central position of nicotine in these studies, and the main part of this work was devoted to the synthesis of nicotine starting from bipyridines. It was thus necessary to determine the conditions for selective reactions on one aromatic ring of bipyridines (N-methylation, N-oxidation and reduction of the heterocycle). Ring contraction procedure allowed us to obtain nicotine from the parent compound (3,3′-bipyridine). Complementary studies yielded various isomers of piperidinylpyridines (hexahydro derivatives of bipyridines) in a regiochemically controlled manner by means of original methods. Elsevier,.
