A simple and highly efficient approach to an enantioenriched 2,6-disubstituted piperidin-3-ol skeleton is developed from an aldehyde as a starting material by using organocatalytic and asymmetric dihydroxylation as the key steps. Its application to the total synthesis of (-)-deoxoprosopinine and (+)-deoxoprosophylline is also reported.

A protocol for the construction of oxindoles containing all-carbon quaternary centres in a highly regioselective manner has been developed. The reaction involves opening of spiroepoxyoxindoles with allylsilanes to give Hosomi-Sakurai-type products as well as new silicon-containing spirocyclic oxindoles. A formal synthesis of (+/-)-physovenine was accomplished in five steps using this protocol.
