Application

4-Methylpiperidine can be used to synthesize the following bioactive compounds:
  • dimethyl bis(4-methylpiperidine-dithiocarbamato-S,S′)-tin(IV)
  • (E)-4-(4′-methylpiperidino-N-alkoxy) stilbenes
  • 4-methylpiperidinoalkylthio and 4-methylpiperidinoalkoxy derivatives of (E)-chalcone

It can also act as a deprotecting reagent for the removal of Fmoc group from amino acids during solid-phase peptide synthesis.
