Six substituted phenacyl derivatives of 4-hydroxypiperidine were prepared and their structures were confirmed through spectroscopic techniques. These newly synthesized derivatives were also screened for analgesic activity by chemical and thermal methods. Only halogenated phenacyl derivatives demonstrated more or less protection against acetic acid induced writhing in mice where as rest of three derivatives were found inactive when screened by this chemical method. Similarly all the six derivatives were proved inactive by tail flick test.

We designed and synthesized new benzylpiperidinyl ether derivatives as beta-amyloid aggregation inhibitors for the development of novel anti-Alzheimer's disease agents. As starting material, 4-hydroxypiperidine was used. For protection of the amine group in piperidine (2), di-tert-butyl dicarbonate was reacted with 4-hydroxypiperidine in the presence of triethylamine. For introduction of benzyl group, benzylbromide was treated with compound 2 in dioxane. After deprotection of Boc group on amine in compound 3, ester (5) was synthesized by addition of ethyl-4-chlorobutyrate. The alcohol 6 was synthesized by hydride reduction of 5 using $LiAlH_4$. To obtain final products (7-14), the alcohol 6 was condensed with each of substituted benzoic acids. To screen beta-amyloid aggregation inhibition of the products, thioflavinT assay was performed using $A{\beta}1-42\;at\;37^{\circ}C$ for 26 h incubation, in vitro. From the result of screening, compound 8, 9, 11 and 12 showed effective activity about $65{\sim}85\;{\mu}M\;as\;IC_{50}$ value. Among the prepared compounds, 4-[4-(benzyloxy)piperidino]butyl-4-chlorobenzoate (8) was the most effective inhibitor having $IC_{50}\;of\;65.4{\mu}M$.

In order to search a more active and safer compound, piperine derivatives with substituents in piperidine residue were synthesized and evaluated on CNS depressant activity. N-Piperoyl-2-methylpiperidine (I) and N-piperoyl-3-methylpiperidine (II) were potent in strychnine-induced convulsion. Compound I and N-piperoyl-3-hydroxypiperidine (IX) exhibited a potent inhibitory effect againt pentetrazoleinduced convulsion and a significant prolongation effect of hexobarbital-induced sleeping time. The hydroxy derivatives were more toxic than the methyl derivatives.

Ten substituted phenacyl derivatives of 4-hydroxypiperidine were synthesized and studied for their effects on the mean arterial blood pressure (MABP) in normotensive anaesthetized rats and smooth muscles contractions of isolated rabbit jejunum. Two derivatives caused fall in blood pressure at the dose of 10-20 mg/kg and one rise in blood pressure at the dose of 20 mg/kg. Two compounds exhibited biphasic response (hypotensive followed by hypertensive) and one gave triphasic response at 10 mg/kg dose. Rest of four derivatives were found devoid of any effect on mean arterial blood pressure up to the dose of 30 mg/kg. All the derivatives except two caused relaxant effect on the spontaneous contraction of rabbit jejunum at the dose range of 0.1 -2 mg/kg.

Anti-aflatoxigenic studies on synthetic pyridione alkaloids were conducted. Seven derivatives using piperlongumine as a leading compound were prepared from 3,4,5-trimethoxycinnamic acid (TMCA). These derivatives were analyzed for their structural confrmation and purity by HPLC, GC, GC/MS and $1^H-NMR$. 1-piperidin-1-yl-3-(3,4,5-trimethoxyphenyl)propenone (1) reaction with piperidine; 1-morpholin-4-yl-3-(3,4,5-trimethoypenyl)propenone (2) with morpholine; 1-(3,5-dimethylpiperidin-1-yl)-3-(3,4,5-trimethoxyphenyl)propenone (3) with 3,5-dimethylpiperdine; 1-(2-methylpiperidine-1-yl)-3-(3,4,5-trimethoxyphenyl)propenone (4) with 2-methylpiperidine; 1-(3-hydroxypiperidin-1-yl)-3- (3,4,5-trimethoxyphenyl)propenone (5) with 3-hydroxypiperidine hydrochloride; 1-[3- (3,4,5-trimethoxyphenyl)acryloyl]piperidin-2-one (6) with ${\delta}-valerolactam;\; and\;ethyl\;1-[3-(3,4,5-trimethoxyphenyl)acyloyl]piperidine-4-carboxylate$ (7) with ethyl isonipectotate were synthesized respectively. All derivatives showed an inhibitory activity on aflatoxin $B_1$ production. In conclusion, we believe that they might be an agent for the control of mycotoxin in agricultural commodities.
