A 5 + 1 Protic Acid Assisted Aza-Pummerer Approach for Synthesis of 4-Chloropiperidines from Homoallylic Amines
2019
We report that HCl·DMPU induces the formation of (thiomethyl)methyl carbenium ion from DMSO under mild conditions. Homoallylic amines react with this electrophile to generate 4-chloropiperidines in good yields. The method applies to both aromatic and aliphatic amines. The use of HCl·DMPU as both non-nucleophilic base and chloride source constitutes an environmentally benign alternative for piperidine formation. The reaction has a broad substrate scope, and the conditions offer good chemical yields with high functional group tolerance and scalability.
