The synthesis of chiral 2-cyano-Δ4-tetrahydropyridine 5 was carried out in 85 % yield through a modified two-step Fry reductive cyanation of pyridinium salt (+)-3c that used lithium triethylborohydride as the hydride donor. An alkylation-reduction sequence provided 2-alkyl-substituted tetrahydropyridines (+)-10a and (+)-10b in 72-75 % yield after chromatographic purification. This protocol has been applied to the asymmetric syntheses of piperidine alkaloids (-)-coniine and (-)-solenopsin A. The two-step reductive cyanation of chiral pyridinium salt (+)-3c afforded α-amino nitrile 5 in 85 % yield, which underwent an alkylation-reduction sequence followed by removal of the chiral moiety to yield the hemlock alkaloid (-)-coniine as its mandelate salt (>99:1 er). This reaction sequence was also used for the synthesis of the trans-2,6-disubstituted piperidine alkaloid (-)-solenopsin A. Copyright

Direct entry: One-pot reductive alkylation of lactams/amides with Grignard reagents has been realized via lactam/amide activation with Tf2O. This method opens a direct entry to α-alkylated amines. The versatility of the method is illustrated by the concise syntheses of bioactive alkaloids (±)-bgugaine, (±)-coniine, (+)-preussin, and (?)-cassine.

An efficient synthetic sequence proposed here provides a new method for preparation of not only solenopsin A, i.e., trans-2-methyl-6-undecylpiperidine, but also coniine, i.e., 2-propylpiperidine, and other 2,6-dialkylpiperidine alkaloids: A reaction of 1-benzyl-2,6-dicyanopiperidine (1) with alkyl halides selectively gives 2-alkyl- and 2,6-dialkyl-1-benzyl-2,6-dicyanopiperidines (2 and 3), decyanation of which affords respectively 2-alkyl- and 2,6-dialkyl-1-benzylpiperidines (4 and 5) in high yields.
