2,6-Bis(3-methoxyphenyl)-3-methylpiperidin-4-one

P. Nithya, F. N. Khan, M. Novanna, V. R. Hathwar and S. W. Ng

Abstract top

In the molecule of the title compound, C20H23NO3, the bulky methoxyphenyl substituents at the equatorial 2,6-positions crowd the vicinity of the equatorial amino H atom and prevent it from forming intermolecular hydrogen bonds. The piperidine ring adopts a distorted chair conformation.

Experimental top

Ammonium acetate (1 mmol), m-methoxybenzaldehyde (2 mmol) and ethylmethyl ketone (1 mmol) was heated until the colour of the solution turned yellow. After the completion of the reaction (as monitored by TLC), the product was dissolved in ether (10 ml). The solution was treated with aqueous hydrochloric acid [20 ml, 1:1 (v/v)]. The hydrochloride salt of the piperidin-4-one was collected and washed with ether. The base was liberated from an alcohol solution of the hydrochloride by the addition of a slight excess of aqueous ammonia at 273 K. The product was collected and recrystallized from ethanol.

Refinement top

C-bound H-atoms were placed in calculated positions (C-H = 0.93–0.98 Å) and were included in the refinement in the riding model approximation, with Uiso(H) set to 1.2–1.5Ueq(C).
