title: Silver ion-induced Grob fragmentation of gamma-amino iodides: highly stereoselective synthesis of polysubstituted piperidines.
abstract: A new concerted silver ion-mediated Grob fragmentation process is described in which a 1,2-dihydropyridinium ion is formed and trapped in situ with Grignard reagents in a highly regio- and diastereoselective fashion. Using this methodology, 2,3,6-trisubstituted piperidines were synthesized in good yields and further derivatized to polysubstituted indolizidine.
