Abstract
Five methods have been developed for electrosynthesis of 2,2,6,6-tetramethyl-4-aminopiperidine in 95-98% yield via the lead-cathode reduction of 2,2,6,6-tetramethyl-4-oxiimino-piperidine, a mixture of triacetonamine with inorganic salts of hydroxylamine, and a mixture of triacetonamine with nitric acid in a solution of sulphuric acid, via the reduction of azine triacetonamine and of a mixture of triacetonamine with inorganic salts of hydrazine in a neutral solution. The corresponding saturated derivatives of 2,2,6,6-tetramethyl-4-aminopiperidine have been obtained in 60-80% yield by electroreduction of phenylimine and ethylene diimine.
