(S)- and (R)-2-Phenylpiperidines, (S)- and (R)-2-methylpiperidines, meso- and (2R, 6R)-2,6-diphenylpiperidines, and meso- and (25, 65)-2,6-dimethylpiperidines were synthesized asymmetrically starting from the diastereoselective addition of Grignard reagents to chiral 1,3-oxazolidines, converting of 1-aza-4-oxabicyclo[4.3.0]nonane derivatives as pivotal intermediates.
