Abstract: Ten N-formyl-cis-2,6-diarylpiperidines have been prepared and their preferred conformations are determined using NMR spectral studies and semiempirical calculations (AM1 and PM3 of MOPAC 6). The severe A 1,3 -strain due to the interaction between the N-C=O group (coplanar to the C2-N1-C6 plane) and the adjacent aryl group forces the N-forrnyl-cis-2,6- diarylpiperidines 19-28 to prefer flattened boat conformations with nitrogen at one of the base positions (VIA and VIB; Figure1). Employing variable temperature NMR studies, the barriers for N-C rotation in the N-formylpiperidin-4-one 19 and the N-formylpiperidine 28 are found to be 72.5 and 65.8 kJ mol-1, respectively, which are in general, lower than those of the corresponding N-nitrosopiperidines. The lower energy barrier (ΔG#) of the N-formylpiperidine 28 compared to the N-formylpiperidin- 4-one 19 (by 6.7 kJ mol-l) is attributed to the larger ground state destabilization of N- formylpiperidine 28 than 19. Semiempirical calculations show a hydrogen bond type of attraction between the electron-rich oxygen atom of N-C=O group and the electron deficient hydrogen at -position (H2).
