Abstract
A new one-pot method was developed for the synthesis of polyfunctional 1,2,3,4-tetrahydropyridines and hexahydroimidazo[1,2-a]pyridines by three-component reaction of ethyl 3-oxobutanoate with formaldehyde and primary amines occurring in water in the presence of electrolytes (NaCl, KCl, NH4Cl) at room temperature. This environmentally friendly method is highly atom economic, because the only by-products it gives are three water molecules. The effect of the structure of primary amines and reaction conditions on the degree of formation of 1,2,3,4-tetrahydropyridines and hexahydroimidazo[1,2-a]pyridines was investigated.
