Abstract

The synthesis of four chiral N,N'-substituted piperazines stereoselectively labelled with deuterium atoms is described. The preparation was accomplished by reduction of norephedrine derived bisoxazolidines with LiAlD4 or BD3·THF to afford 2,3-d2-piperazine and 2,3-dimethyl-2,3-d2-piperazine, while 2,2,3,3-d4- and 2,2,3,3,5,6-d6-piperazine were obtained from a strategically deuterated hydroxyethylenediamine precursor using the same route. In all cases, deuteration of bisoxazolidines proceeded with trans stereoselectivity.
