A diastereoconvergent approach to (–)-paroxetine from diastereomeric 3,4-epoxy-2-piperidones is reported. For this synthesis, a regioselective and stereodivergent CuI-catalyzed epoxide-ring-opening reaction of epoxyamide precursors to give the 4-(4-fluorophenyl)-2-piperidone skeleton with the correct absolute configuration is crucial. Using CuBr·SMe2 as a catalyst, the epoxide-ring-opening reaction takes place with inversion of configuration; the configuration is retained when CuI is used.

A dramatic acceleration of the enantioselective copper-catalyzed conjugate reduction of α,β-unsaturated lactones, lactams, and esters is reported upon addition of alcohol additives. Good to excellent yields and enantioselectivities were realized using a catalyst generated in situ from CuCl2·H2O, t-BuONa, p-tol-BINAP, and PMHS, and this methodology was applied to the synthesis of (-)-Paroxetine.

Reaction of (R)-phenylglycinol with methyl 5-oxopentanoate gave either bicyclic lactam cis-1 (the kinetic product) or its isomer trans-1 (under equilibrating conditions) as the major products, which were converted to the corresponding (cis or trans) unsaturated lactams 4 and 5. On treatment with lithium alkyl (or aryl) cyanocuprates, these chiral building blocks undergo conjugate addition to give enantiopure trans-3,4-substituted 2-piperidone derivatives in high yield and stereoselectivity. The synthetic potential of this transformation is illustrated by the synthesis of (+)-femoxetine and the two enantiomers of the known antidepressant paroxetine.
