- Ligand-promoted C3-selective arylation of pyridines with Pd catalysts: Gram-scale synthesis of (±)-preclamol
-
The first example of Pd-catalyzed, C3-selective arylation of unprotected pyridines has been developed by employing a catalytic system consisting of Pd(OAc)2 and 1,10-phenanthroline. This protocol provides an expeditious route to an important class of 3-arylpyridines and 3-arylpiperidines frequently found in bioactive compounds. A brief synthesis of the drug molecule (±)-preclamol is also reported.

- 3-Phenylpiperidines. Central Dopamine-Autoreceptor Stimulating Activity
-
Thirty compounds related to the selective dopamine-autoreceptor agonist 3-(3-hydroxyphenyl)-N-n-propylpiperidine have been synthesized and tested for central dopamine-autoreceptor stimulating activity.The 3-(3-hydroxyphenyl)piperidine moiety seems indispensable for high potency and selectivity.Introduction of an additional hydroxyl group into the 4-position of the aromatic ring gives a compound with dopaminergic activity but lacking selectivity for autoreceptors. 3-(3-Hydroxyphenyl)-N-n-propylpyrrolidine, 3-(3-hydroxy)-N-n-propylperhydroazepine, and 3-(3-hydroxyphenyl)quinuclidine were all inactive.The most potent compounds were the N-isopropyl-, N-n-butyl-, N-n-pentyl-, and N-phenethyl-substituted 3-(3-hydroxyphenyl)piperidine derivatives.None of the compounds investigated seemed to have central noradrenaline- or serotonin-receptor stimulating activity.
