Abstract

The treatment of optically active prolinols with DAST produces optically active 3-fluoropiperidines via aziridinium intermediates.

ring expansion - fluorine - rearrangements - piperidine - aziridinium

General Procedure for the Ring Expansion of Prolinols 1-5 and 19-23.
To a stirred solution of prolinol (0.5 mmol) in THF or CH₂Cl₂ (5 mL) at 0 °C, DAST (0.7 mmol) was added dropwise. After 1 h, the cooling bath was removed and the reaction mixture was stirred at r.t. for 1 h. The reaction was worked up by cooling to 0 °C followed by careful addition of a sat. NaHCO₃ solution (10 mL). The mixture was extracted twice with EtOAc (30 mL). The crude product was purified by flash chromatography on silica gel using cyclohexane-Et₂O (9:1) as eluant.
