✦ Synopsis


Abstract

A broadly applicable route to trans‐2,5‐disubstituted pyrrolidines has been developed. Key steps are an asymmetric iridium‐catalyzed allylic amination, a Suzuki–Miyaura coupling, and an intramolecular aza‐Michael addition. Enantiomeric excesses in the range of 93–99 % ee have been achieved. Total syntheses of the alkaloids (−)‐225 C, (+)‐ and (−)‐223 H (xenovenine), (+)‐223 AB, (+)‐195 B, and (+)‐223 R have been carried out as applications.

## Abstract A method for the stereoselective synthesis of 2,6‐disubstituted piperidines has been developed that is based on the use of an intramolecular iridium‐catalyzed allylic substitution as a configurational switch. The procedure allows the preparation of 2‐vinylpiperidines with enantiomeric e
