Chiral, nonracemic 2-substituted pyrrolidines and piperidines were prepared in high ee and moderate to good chemical yields in three steps from (R)-phenylglycinol and γ- or δ-chloroketones. The key step of the synthesis was the stereo- selective reductive ring-opening of chiral bicyclic 1,3- oxazolidines prepared by condensation of (R)-phenylglycinol and the corresponding ketones.
