Abstract

Enantioselective synthesis of the piperidine alkaloids, (-)-adaline (1) and (-)-euphococcinine (2), were achieved from 7 in a six-step sequence through stepwise allylic transfer reactions. Dramatic additive effect of Bu3SnF for the conversion of 3 into 9 was observed to expedite the process to afford the cyclized products in good yields.
