Sulfamic acid has been found as an efficient and cost effective catalyst for one pot multicomponent synthesis of some new densely functionalized piperidine derivatives using amines, aldehydes and β-keto esters. The meritorious aspects of this novel protocol are atom economic process, heterogeneous and easily accessible catalyst, good to excellent yield, convenient work up and eco-friendly route. Keywords: Enamine, Mannich reaction, sulfamic acid, functionalized piperidine, multicomponent reaction

Multi-component reactions (MCRs) allow molecular complexity and diversity to be created by facile formation of new co-valent bonds in organic transformations which could be extended into combinatorial synthesis for developing new lead structures of active agents and catalysts1,2. MCRs usually entail eco-friendly, atom economic, time saving processes avoiding the protection-deprotection steps3. MCRs have emerged as efficient tools in organic and medicinal chemistry4. Synthesis of functionalized heterocyclic scaffolds by MCRs has been proposed as an alternative approach in organic synthesis5. Among the heterocyclic systems, the piperidine nucleus is of significant importance owing to its composition as a core unit in several biologically active compounds, natural products and synthetic pharmaceuticals6. Many naturally occurring and synthetically prepared piperidine derivatives show important biological and medicinal properties including anticancer7, antitumor8, antihistamine9, antibacterial10 and antifungal11, etc. A thorough survey of the reported literature reveals application of diverse catalytic scaffolds such as InCl3 (Ref 12), ZrOCl2.8H2O (Ref 13), BF3.SiO2 (Ref 14), bromodimethylsulfonium bromide (BDMS)4, CAN6, molecular I2 (Ref 15), BiNO3.5H2O (Ref 16), tetrabutylammonium tribromide (TBATB)17, picric acid18, 7 19 L-proline , p-toluenesulfonic acid monohydrate , PEG-embedded KBr3 (Ref 20), LaCl3.7H2O (Ref 21) and more recently by acetic acid22. However, most of

the reported methods suffer from demerits like longer reaction time, toxic and costly catalyst, low yields, etc. Therefore, there emerges an urgent need for exploration of enhanced and generalized methods for the synthesis of these vital scaffolds using commercially available and reasonable catalysts. Recently, the use of solid acid catalyst has been found to be an innovative aspect in contemporary organic chemistry7,12,13. Sulfamic acid is one of the heterogeneous catalysts which serves as a promising alternative for conventional Brønsted and Lewis acid catalysts23,24. Along with its ability to efficiently catalyze ketal formation, deprotection and many other organic transformations, it drives the reaction processes in convenient, economic and environmentally benign manner25,26. Sulfamic acid is bestowed with unique features like moderate acidity (pKa 1.0), insolubility in common organic solvents, thermal stability, Zwitterionic character, non-volatile, non-corrosive, non-hygroscopic nature and high miscibility in water along with recyclability and reusability27-29. As part of the ongoing efforts to achieve new routes for the synthesis of heterocyclic compounds30, herein is reported a one-pot multicomponent synthesis of highly functionalized piperidine derivatives by condensing acetoacetic esters, aryl aldehydes and aryl amines in the presence of catalytic amounts of sulfamic acid (SA) as a proficient and viable catalyst (Scheme I).

Results and Discussion Initially, a mixture of p-chlorobenzaldehyde, pmethyl aniline and ethyl acetoacetate was refluxed in ethanol in the presence of catalytic amount of sulfamic acid to obtain the corresponding piperidine derivative. The product was obtained in good to excellent yield with elevated reaction rate which was assumed to be a result of the significant role played by the catalyst in the above transformation. Optimization studies of the above reaction were carried out by altering the organic solvents, amount of incorporated catalyst and the reaction temperature. The results have been summarized in Table I. The reaction did not proceed in the absence of catalyst even after prolonged boiling (25 hr, Table I, Entry 3). Increment in catalyst quantity from 10 to 15 mol% increases both yield and rate of the reaction (Table I, Entries 9, 10). A

further increment of catalyst amount (above 15 mol%) does not affect the yield and rate of the reaction (Table I, Entry 11). Finally, among all the experimental variations the 15 mol% sulfamic acid in ethanol at reflux temperature gave the best results with 89% yield (Table I, Entry 10). To check the generality and scope of the optimized protocol, the methodology was evaluated by employing different aromatic aldehydes, aryl amines and βketoesters. The resultant corresponding functionalized piperidines (4a-p) were obtained in good to excellent yields (Table II). It was observed that the aldehydes with electron donating groups proved dominance affording higher yields (Table II, Entries 3, 8, 16) as compared to electron withdrawing groups which were obtained in comparatively lower yields (Table II, Entries 2, 4, 6, 9, 11-15).

Similarly, the use of aliphatic aldehyde and amine for the present protocol proved to be ineffective and failed to give the desired piperidine derivative even after prolonged stirring (Table II, Entries 17, 18). A probable mechanism for the product formation is proposed in Scheme II, which is in accordance with the reported literature13,15-17. Sulfamic acid acts as a Lewis acid for the reaction of aromatic amine 2 and β-keto ester 1 to give enamine 5 and the reaction of aromatic aldehyde 3 and aromatic amine 2 to give the corresponding imine 6 (Schiff base). Then nucleophilic attack of enamine 5 will take place preferentially on the activated imine 6 followed by inter-and intramole-cular Mannich type reaction to give intermediate 10 which tautomerises to give the final piperidine scaffold 4. Thereafter, the performance of sulfamic acid was evaluated using other relevant catalysts for the synthesis of piperidine derivatives as shown in Table III. Considering the criteria of reaction time and yields of the products, sulfamic acid performed efficiently outperforming the others catalysts engaged for the same reaction.

The IR spectra were run on a Perkin-Elmer FTIR-1600 spectrophotometer and the data expressed in cm-1 (KBr). 1H and 13C NMR spectra were recorded on Bruker Avance (300 MHz) spectrometer in CDCl3 using TMS as the internal standard. Mass spectra were recorded on a Performa spectrometer. General procedure for the preparation of piperidine derivatives (4a-p) A mixture of β-ketoester (1 mmol), aryl amine (2 mmol) and sulfamic acid (15 mol%) in 5 mL ethanol was stirred at RT for 15 min, aryl aldehyde (2 mmol) was then added and stirring was continued at 78°C till the completion of TLC. A solid precipitate of the desired product was formed as the reaction mass was gradually cooled to RT. The crude solid was filtered and washed with cold ethanol. In those cases, where a solid was not formed after cooling, the solvent was evaporated by rotary evaporation and the crude product obtained was purified by column chromatography over silica gel (EtOAc/pet ether) to give pure functionalized piperidine product (Table II, Entries 3,6,7). The products were analyzed by IR, 1H and 13 C NMR and mass spectrometry.
