Abstract

A theoretical investigation of the model diazotization/dediazotization of N-aminopiperidine and N-aminomorpholine at the DFT (B3LYP/6-31+G(d)) level indicated that the corresponding cycloimines can be generated transiently, which can be trapped with dimethyl acetylenedicarboxylate (DMAD) to form a 1,4-dipole followed by cycloaddition of the latter with a second molecule of DMAD to give the corresponding pyrido-annelated products. All steps have low activation free energy barriers and are thermodynamically favoured. Based on the theoretical results, we carried out successfully diazotization of N-amino cyclic amines, namely N-aminopiperidine, 4-aminomorpholine and 1-amino-4-methylpiperazine with tert.-butyl nitrite followed by dediazotization to generate transiently the corresponding cycloimines, which could be trapped with dimethyl acetylenedicarboxylate. to afford new annelated pyridine derivatives, namely tetramethyl 9H-5,6,7,8-tetrahydroquinolizine-1,2,3,4-tetracarboxylate, tetramethyl 5,6,8,9-tetrahydropyrido[2,1-c][1,4]oxazine-1,2,3,4-tetracarboxylate and tetramethyl 9H-5,6,7,8-tetrahydro-7-methylpyrido[1,2-a]pyrazine-1,2,3,4-tetracarboxylate which were duly characterized.
