N. Bentley et al., THE SYNTHESIS OF 1-OXAQUINOLIZIDINES VIA THE MERCURY(II) ACETATE MEDIATED CYCLIZATION OF PIPERIDINE ALCOHOLS, Tetrahedron, 49(20), 1993, pp. 4315-4320
The oxidation of (s)-3-piperidinyl-1-phenyl-1-propanols with mercury (
II) acetate results in the formation of trans and cis decalin isomers
of 1-oxaquinolizidines.
