11. Piperidine can be converted to the chloramine C 5 H 10 NCl with calcium hypochlorite.12. Risperidone contains the functional groups of benzisoxazole and piperidine as part of its molecular structure. 13. Pyridine can also be reduced to piperidine via a modified Birch reduction using sodium in ethanol. 14. Summer lupine is one of three piperidine alkaloid containing plants that have poisonous effects on livestock. 15. Industrially, piperidine is produced by the hydrogenation of pyridine, usually over a molybdenum disulfide catalyst: 16.
