Abstract

Reduction of N-alkyl-2-(2-hydroxy-2-phenylethyl)pyridinium salts using excess of sodium triacetoxyborohydride afforded exclusively the corresponding tetrahydropyridine derivative bearing a piperidine ring with a double bond in the 3,4-position. Furthermore, under these conditions, syn-1,3-amino alcohols were obtained in good yield and diastereoselectivity.
