We have developed a method for a B(C6F5)3-catalyzed hydroboration/hydrogenation cascade reduction of pyridines. The method was particularly effective for 2,3-disubstituted pyridines, which generated piperidines in high yields with high cis selectivity. Mechanistic studies indicated that the pyridine substrates and the piperidine products sequentially acted as bases in cooperation with B(C6F5)3to split H2. The broad functional group tolerance of the method allowed its use for the synthesis of some biologically active molecules.

A series of lobelane homologues has been synthesized and evaluated for their [3H]DTBZ binding affinity at the vesicular monoamine transporter-2 (VMAT2). The structure-activity relationships (SAR) indicate that for retention of binding affinity at VMAT2, the lengths of the methylene linkers should be no shorter than one methylene unit at C-6 of the piperidine ring, and no shorter than two methylene units at C-2 of the piperidine ring. These results indicate that the intramolecular distances between the piperidine ring and two phenyl rings in lobelane analogues are an important criterion for retention of high affinity at VMAT2.
