Hi,all, help me draw this structure, ths


-O-CH2CH2-4-pyrrolidin-1-yl-piperidine

I do not known how to connect pyrrolidin with piperidine, also CH2CH2 with pyrrolidin.

How can I identify the number from the cycle? OR is there some web service or software to get this structure directly through inputting the name like "-O-CH2CH2-4-pyrrolidin-1-yl-piperidine" !

I am beginner. ths

The piper-pyrro connection is almost how you have it, but the piperidine's N goes exactly half way around the ring from where you have it.

I'm sorry I can't figure out where to put the ethyl goes. Perhaps it is attached to the N in piperidine. Also, the O should attach to the structure (if it is indeed an ester), and there should be a double bond between the C=C.

Hopefully someone else can confirm or deny my allegations :P

You can input (some) names into ChemDraw. What you have is not an IUPAC (International Union of Pure and Applied Chemistry) name, and this chemdraw won't know what to do with it.

Regardless, keep in mind that simple heterocycles are numbered with the heteroatom as 1. You've also incorrectly called the 3 position of the pyrrolidine the 4 position. Always chose the lowest numbering when two possible directions can be taken around the ring. From your name, the attachment of the piperidine ring is ambiguous. You must use parentheses to denote where it is that you're numbering.

The structure you have drawn is 3-(2-methoxyethyl)-1-(1-piperidinyl)pyrrolidine or 1-[3-(2-methoxyethyl)pyrrolidin-1-yl]piperidine. I think the latter is more 'correct' base on alphabetizing, or perhaps ring size.

"-O-CH2CH2-4-pyrrolidin-1-yl-piperidine" indeed is not an acceptable chemical name so nobody can give you an answer (not just that it is incomplete/ambiguous and against IUPAC rules, but it is not even a name of a compound). The only guess of some certainty that I can make is that "4-pyrrolidin-1-yl-piperidine" is probably meant to be "4-(pyrrolidin-1-yl)piperidine" because otherwise, just like Arrhenius told you already, without parentheses, it makes no sense whatsoever. As to what and where the "-O-CH2CH2" part is supposed to be is anybody's guess. When a name is ambiguous like that, it can fit too many structures and no definite answer can be given so I will not give any. I suggest you to ask whomever made such a pseudochemical name as he is the only one who knows what he had in mind.

I thought it could also determined by the most substituted ring, in an attempt to avoid nested brackets as much as possible. As the piperidine ring is unsubstituted, the pyrrolidine ring would be the base and would have two fairly simple substitutes. Or has that changed since I learned it?

Hi, maybe you can try a free chemical-structure-drawing-program like ACD labs' one (http://www.acdlabs.com/).
I didn't really understand your question - but you can draw a molecule and it can generate a 'smiles code' and name it also.
One can even have a 3D model of the structure and do various things with it. I've found it useful in the past with visualizations of stereochemistry etc.
I think one can also enter the cas number etc. and it can draw the molecule for you if that is the problem.

And maybe look at pubchem http://pubchem.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/
Might be to use if you can find a better name or structure.
Best luck!

Oh good, I wasn't going mad then. :)

HI, thank you all,

I post the original picture now, which is from a paper, and you can give me a picture about the right compound about it.

thank you!

In the future, it's helpeful for others if you post the reference in your first post.

Bioorganic & Medicinal Chemistry Letters, Volume 19, Issue 13, 1 July 2009, Pages 3623-3626

Or are you looking at the patent?

BMCL is not exactly a top rate journal, so i'm not surprised by this error. BMCL also generally doesn't publish NMR... so who knows what they actually made! :(

Here's what it probably is.

Not just the picture, but please put a reference to the journal article you're asking about.

For example:
Authors, tittle, <i>Bioorg. Med. Chem. Lett. </i>(<b>2009</b>;), 19(13), 3623-3626.

Don't feel picked on! It's all good information to know :)
