3,4-O-Isopropylidene-3(R),4(S)-dihydroxycyclohexanone 7, a chiron easily prepared through a five step sequence from D(-)-quinic acid 1, has been efficiently utilized as the starting building block for the enantioselective syntheses of (3R,4S)-N-p-toluenesulfonyl-3,4-epoxy-hexahydroazepine 17 and (1R,4S)-N-tert-butoxycabonyl-7-azabicyclo[2.2.1]heptan-2-one 43, advanced intermediates already taken to (-)-balanol and (-)-epibatidine respectively. While the nitrogen atom ring insertion via Beckmann rearrangement was the key step for the construction of the hexahydroazepine ring of 17, a regio- and stereospecific intramolecular nucleophilic ring opening of an intermediate cyclic sulfate featured the approach to the substituted 7-azabicyclo[2.2.1]heptane nucleus of 43.

By utilizing, D-(-)-quinic acid as the chiral starting material the optically pure 7-[(1,1-dimethylethoxy)carbonyl]-7-azabicyclo[ 2.2.1]heptan-2-one 2, an advanced intermediate already taken to (+)-epibatidine 1, a non-opioid analgesic isolated from Ecuadorian poison frogs, was synthetized through a facile, regioselective intramolecular nucleophilic ring opening of a cyclic sulfate moiety.
