Compounds of structure (1) are obtained by reduction of compounds of the structures Compounds of structure (1), especially where Z is a hydrogen atom or a 3,4-methylenedioxyphenyl group, are important intermediates for inter alia paroxetine.
Novel process

, (2008/06/13)
A process for the preparation of a 4-aryl-3-oxymethyl-piperidine of structure (1) in which R is hydrogen or an alkyl, arylalkyl, allyl, acyl, carbonyloxyalkyl, carbonyloxyaryl, or carbonyloxyalkylaryl group, and Y is a hydrogen atom or an optionally substituted alkyl, arylalkyl, or aryl group, from a carboxy derivative of structure (2) where A is oxygen or sulphar, X is one or more of hydrogen, or a readily reducible group, Z represents either a hydrogen atom or an OY′ group in which Y′ is independently selected from the same groups as Y, and the broken line circle indicates bonding, appropriate to a tetrahydropyridine, dihydropyridine, pyridine, or piperidine ring said process comprising (a) when Y is a hydrogen atom, reducing the compound of structure (2), or (b) when Y is other than a hydrogen atom (i) forming an ether from the alcohol product of step (a), (ii) etherifying the aldehyde compound of structure (2) in which Z is hydrogen, or (iii) reducing the ester compound of structure (2) in which Z is OY′.
Process for preparing arylpiperidine carbinol intermediates and derivatives

, (2008/06/13)
A process for the synthesis of arylpiperidine carbinol intermediates and derivatives is disclosed. A preferred process embodiment provides the synthesis of intermediate compounds of structural formula (I) and structural formula (II): where X is halo, C1-C10 alkoxy, C1-C10 haloalkyl, or hydroxy; R2 and R3 are each C1-C4 alkyl, and R2 and R3 are the same. The compound of structural formula (I) is made by condensing a corresponding cinnamonitrile with a corresponding diester malonate. The compound of structural formula (II) in the (±)-trans configuration is obtained by hydrogenating the compound of structural formula (I). The compounds of structural formula (I) and structural formula (II) are useful chemical intermediates for synthesizing 4-arylpiperidine-3-carbinols and their derivatives in (?)-trans configuration.
