Abstract
The 5,6,7,8‐tetrahydro‐1,7‐naphthyridine (7) pharmacophore has the potential to serve as a confor‐mationally‐locked analog of the pharmacologically active 2‐(3‐pyridyl)ethylamine (1) core structure. This paper describes the synthesis of 5,6,7,8‐tetrahydro‐1,7‐naphthyridine (7) via a five‐step sequence, which affords a significant improvement over previously reported syntheses.

An expeditious and concise synthesis of 3-(difluoromethoxy)-5,6,7,8-tetrahydro-1,6-naphthyridine and 3-(trifluoromethoxy)-5,6,7,8-tetrahydro-1,6-naphthyridines is described. Starting from N-benzyl piperidone, the key intermediates leading to these two biologically desirable synthones were rapidly as
The synthesis of conformationally locked analogs of epibatidine are described in which the key step is an intramolecular reductive palladium-catalyzed Heck-type coupling.
## Abstract A new access to 5‐phenyl‐5,6,7,8‐tetrahydro‐1,6‐naphthyridines **25a‐28a** (n=1) and 5‐phenyl‐6,7,8,9‐tetrahydro‐5__H__‐pyrido[3,2‐__c__]azepines **25b‐28b** (n=2) has been developed by first preparing the functional pyridine moiety followed by intramolecular cyclization forming the par
