Abstract

Enantiopure cis-2-phenyl-3-piperidinol is a commonly used synthon for the obtention of a potent class of neurokinin substance P receptor antagonists. Starting from (R)- phenylglycine, the present report describes an efficient route for the stereoselective synthesis of the above piperidinol structural core.
