Nucleophilic ring-opening reactions of three 1-aralkyl-3,4-epoxypiperidines with a series of aliphatic and aromatic amines have been investigated. Reactions in protic solvents, preferably 2-propanol, gave rise to 3-amino-piperidin-4-ols in ratios up to 20:1. Accordingly, 4- fluorobenzyltrozamicol, a highly potent ligand for the vesicular acetylcholine transporter was obtained directly from an epoxide ring opening in one step, without the need of chromatographic separation. Reactions in acetonitrile assisted by Li-salts, most suitable with LiBr, led regioselectively to trans-4-amino-piperidin-3-ols in high yields. N-Phenethyl substituted anilino-piperidinols as easily obtained by this method were converted into a series of new β-hydroxy substituted anilidopiperidines.
