Abstract

The title compound, C28H32N2, (I), is one of a second generation of compounds designed and synthesized based on a very potent and selective α9α10 nicotinic acetylcholine receptor antagonist ZZ161C {1,1′-[[1,1′-biphenyl]-4,4′-diylbis(prop-2-yne-3,1-diyl)]bis(3,4-dimethylpyridin-1-ium) bromide}, which has shown analgesic effects in a chemotherapy-induced neuropathy animal model. Compound (I) was synthesized by the reaction of 4,4′-bis(3-bromoprop-1-yn-1-yl)-1,1′-biphenyl with piperidine at room temperature in acetonitrile. The single-crystal used for X-ray analysis was obtained by dissolving (I) in a mixture of dichloromethane and methanol, followed by slow evaporation of the solvent. In the crystal of (I), the biphenyl moiety has a twisted conformation, with a dihedral angle of 25.93 (4)° between the benzene rings. Both piperidine head groups in (I) are in the chair conformation and are oriented so that the N-Atom lone pairs of each piperidine group point away from the central biphenyl moiety.
