NZ-γ-amino alcohols derived from nonracemic β-amino acids are smoothly oxidised by manganese dioxide in acetonitrile to afford aldehydes which can be trapped in situ in Wittig reactions with carbonyl-substituted phosphoranes. The application of this methodology to the synthesis of the alkaloids (S)-(+)-N-BOC-coniie,(S)-(−)-coniceine and a pipecoline precursor is described.
