C2-Symmetric 2,6-diallylpiperidine 1-carboxylic acid methyl ester (5) was examined via the double asymmetric allylboration of glutaraldehyde
followed by aminocyclization and carbamation as a promising chiral building block for piperidine-related alkaloids, which were synthesized by
the desymmetrization of 5 using intramolecular iodocarbamation as a key step.
