Abstract

Convergent synthesis of 2,6-disubstituted piperidine alkaloid, (+)-spectaline is described. Using substrate-controlled diastereo-selective Pd(II)-catalyzed cyclization, both cis-2,6- and trans-2,6-disubstituted piperidine backbones were constructed from adequately protected precursors with high selectivity. Synthesis of (+)-spectaline containing cis-2,6-disubstituents was accomplished by 10 step reactions with a 31% total yield.
