Efficient synthesis of piperidine derivatives using dendrimer based catalytical pockets

Abstract

AbstractThe synthesis of highly functionalized piperidine derivatives using amine functionalized maltitol‐cored dendritic polymer (MAL‐G0) in acetonitrile as the reaction medium is reported. A variety of piperidine derivatives were synthesized and the reaction gave an excellent yield of 89%–95%. The highly functionalized nature of the catalyst provided large number of active sites which resulted in good yield within a short period of time. Maltitol is a carbohydrate polyol system which was chosen here as the core for the synthesis of the dendritic catalyst; it was an effective approach for the preparation of piperidine like medicinal compounds. Maltitol‐cored dendritic polymer was effectively synthesized and characterized using GPC, TG, UV–Visible, IR, and NMR techniques and also all the synthesized piperidine derivatives were characterized using LCMS, IR, and NMR techniques.
