Abstract

Access to 3,4-disubstituted N-benzylprolinol derivatives is described that, after optimization of the ring-enlargement reaction conditions, could be efficiently transformed into the corresponding 3-hydroxypiperidines. This approach was applied to the asymmetric synthesis of (+)-isofagomine relying on regio- and stereoselective oxirane opening with the cyanide anion of a pivotal epoxypyrrolidine.

Key words

iminosugar - piperidine - ring enlargement - epoxide opening
