Ultrasound-promoted synthesis of novel bipodal and tripodalpiperidin-4-ones and silica chloride mediated conversion to its piperidin-4-ols: synthesis and structural confinements

Abstract

The ultrasound-promoted synthesis of novel bipodal and tripodalpiperidin-4-ones was carried out by the reaction of 4-piperidone hydrochloride monohydrate with different alkylating and acylating agents. It was preferably reduced to respective piperidin-4-ols by ultrasonic irradiation using silica chloride, which maintains higher yields by acting as an effective supporting polymer. The sterically hindered phthaloyl derivative of piperidin-4-one was synthesized by ultrasonic irradiation which was difficult by conventional methods.
