The title compound, C13H23N3O4, was prepared starting from ethyl N-benzyl-3-oxopiperidine-4-carboxylate through a nine-step reaction, including hydrogenation, Boc (tert-butoxycarbonyl) protection, methylation, oximation, hydrolysis, esterification and ammonolysis. In the molecules are linked by intermolecular N—H⋯O hydrogen bonds to form a porous three-dimensional network with solvent-free hydrophobic channels extending along the c axis.

To a solution of ethyl N-Boc-3-methoxyimino-4-methylpiperidine-4-carboxylate (12.71 g, 40.5 mmol) in ethanol (50 ml) was added dropwise a solution of sodium hydroxide (2.75 g, 68.85 mmol) in water (5 ml) at room temperature. After stirring for 4.5 h, ethanol was removed under reduced pressure. After addition of water (20 ml), acetic acid (5 ml, 86.5 mmol) and triethylamine (17 ml, 122 mmol), the mixture was stirred for 10 min and extracted with CH2Cl2 (3 × 40 ml). The combined organic extracts were washed with saturated brine (3 × 20 ml) and dried over anhydrous sodium sulfate. The reaction mixture was then cooled to 259-261 K, and isobutyl chloroformate (13.1 ml, 101.8 mmol) was added. After 0.5 h, the reaction mixture was washed with 1 N HCl (4 × 20 ml) and saturated brine (4 × 40 ml), and dried over anhydrous sodium sulfate. The resulting yellow residue was purified by δ): 1.37-1.46 (12H, m, CH3), 1.50-1.57 (1H, m, C5), 2.43-2.49 (1H, m, C5), 3.38-3.53 (2H, m, C6), 3.89 (3H, s, OCH3), 4.17-4.45 (2H, m, C2), 5.57 (1H, br, CONH), 6.00 (1H, br, CONH).

Geometry. All e.s.d.'s (except the e.s.d. in the dihedral angle between two l.s. planes) are estimated using the full covariance matrix. The cell e.s.d.'s are taken into account individually in the estimation of e.s.d.'s in distances, angles and torsion angles; correlations between e.s.d.'s in cell parameters are only used when they are defined by crystal symmetry. An approximate (isotropic) treatment of cell e.s.d.'s is used for estimating e.s.d.'s involving l.s. planes. |
Refinement. Refinement of F2 against ALL reflections. The weighted R-factor wR and goodness of fit S are based on F2, conventional R-factors R are based on F, with F set to zero for negative F2. The threshold expression of F2 > σ(F2) is used only for calculating R-factors(gt) etc. and is not relevant to the choice of reflections for refinement. R-factors based on F2 are statistically about twice as large as those based on F, and R- factors based on ALL data will be even larger. |

Quinolones, a class of synthetic antibacterial compounds based on a 4-quinolone skeleton, have been the landmark discovery in the treatment of bacterial infections in both community and hospital setting (Ray et al., 2005; Ball et al., 1998; Bryskier, 1997). The most intensive structural variations have been carried out on the basic group at the C-7 position, partially due to the ease of their introduction through a nucleophilic aromatic substitution reaction on the corresponding halide. Piperazine, aminopyrolidine and their derivatives have been the most successfully employed side chains, as evidenced by the compounds currently on the market (De Sarro & De Sarro, 2001; Anderson & Osheroff, 2001; Dang et al., 2007). Recently, as part of an ongoing study aimed to find potent and broad-spectrum antibacterial agents displaying strong Gram-positive activity, we have focused our attention on the synthesis of C-7 substituted quinolones (Wang et al., 2008). We report here the crystal structure of the title compound, which is a key intermediate of 3-methoxyimino-4-amino-4-methylpiperidine.
In the molecule of the title compound (Fig. 1), the N1—C6 (1.352 (2) Å) and N3—C12 (1.323 (2) Å) bond lengths are significantly shorter than the normal C—N single bond (1.47 Å), indicating some conjugation with the C6═O2 and C12═O4 carbonyl groups, respectively. The six-membered piperidine ring adopts a boat conformation, with N1 and C3 displaced by 0.533 (2) and 0.632 (2) Å, respectively, from the mean-plane through C1, C2, C4 and C5. In the crystal structure, molecules are linked by intermolecular N—H···O hydrogen bonds (Table 1) to form a porous three-dimensional network with solvent-free hydrophobic channels extending along the c axis (Fig. 2).
