(equation presented) This report describes a new method to prepare optically active methylphenidate starting from piperidine. The method consists of a transformation of N-methoxycarbonylpiperidine to the corresponding α-methoxylated carbamate I by utilizing electrochemical oxidation followed by the coupling reaction with optically active Evans imides II to produce optically active methylphenidate derivatives III with high stereoselectivities. threo-(2R,2′R)-Methylphenidate (IV; Ar=Ph; Ritalin) was easily prepared from III in three steps.
