Several 2-phenylsulphonyl-piperidines and -pyrrolidines were prepared from the corresponding N-acyl aminals by treatment with benzenesulphinic acid. On reaction with various carbon nucleophiles these sulphones gave good yields of substitution products. Typical nucleophiles used in these studies were organometallic reagents derived from Grignard reagents and zinc halide together with silyl enol ethers, silyl ketene acetals, allylsilanes and trimethylsilyl cyanide in the presence of a Lewis acid. These methods were employed in the synthesis of two natural product alkaloids; Norruspoline (38) and Ruspolinone (40).
