The discovery of pharmaceutical candidates is a resource-intensive enterprise that frequently requires the parallel synthesis of hundreds or even thousands of molecules. Carbon-hydrogen bonds are present in almost all pharmaceutical agents. As such, the development of selective, rapid, and efficient methods for converting carbon-hydrogen bonds into new chemical entities has the potential to dramatically streamline pharmaceutical development. Saturated nitrogen-containing heterocycles (alicyclic amines) feature prominently in pharmaceuticals, including treatments for depression (paroxetine, amitifadine), diabetes (gliclazide), leukemia (alvocidib), schizophrenia (risperidone, belaperidone), and nicotine addiction (cytisine and varenicline). However, existing methods for the C–H functionalization of saturated nitrogen heterocycles, particularly at sites remote to nitrogen, remain extremely limited . Here we report a new approach to selectively manipulate the carbon–hydrogen bonds of alicyclic amines at sites remote to nitrogen. Our reaction leverages the boat conformation of the substrates to achieve the palladium-catalyzed amine-directed conversion of C–H bonds to C–C bonds on various alicyclic amine scaffolds. This approach is applied to the synthesis of novel derivatives of several bioactive molecules, including the top-selling smoking cessation drug varenicline (Chantix®). We anticipate that this method should prove broadly useful in medicinal chemistry.
