Abstract

The use of 5 mol % of AlCl3 as the catalyst and 2 equiv of a trimethylsilyl halide as the halide source enables aza-Prins cyclization of N-tosyl homoallylamine or Prins cyclization of homoallylic alcohol with carbonyl compounds to provide the corresponding trans-2-substituted-4-halopiperidines or cis-2-substituted-4-halotetrahydropyrans in high yields and satisfactory diastereoselectivity.
