The kinetic resolutions of both (±)-N-(benzyloxycarbonyl-2- (hydroxymethyl)piperidine [(±)-5] and (±)-N(tert-butoxycarbonyl)-2- (hydroxymethyl)piperidine [(±)-6] catalyzed by the enzyme acylase I from Aspergillus species (AA-I) afforded the chiral building blocks (S)-5 and (S)- 6, respectively; which were used for the syntheses of the title natural products and derivatives of (S)-pipecolic acid. The syntheses were short (2- 4 steps) and proceeded with satisfactory overall yield.
