title: Synthesis of 4-arylpiperidines from 1-benzyl-4-piperidone: application of the Shapiro reaction and alkenylsilane cross-coupling.
abstract: [reaction: see text] 1-Benzyl-3,4-unsaturated-4-piperidinyl benzyldimethylsilane has been prepared and observed to readily undergo palladium-catalyzed cross-coupling reactions with a variety of aryl iodides and aryl bromides to generate 3,4-unsaturated 4-arylpiperidines, often at ambient temperature.
