Application
(S)-(-)-Citronellic acid may be used in the synthesis of trisubstituted piperidine substructures of the veratramine and jervine type, that can be building blocks for developing cyclopamine analogs.

All four diastereomers of the trisubstituted piperidine-alkaloids of the veratramine and jervine type were synthesized with complete stereocontrol starting from enantiopure citronellic acids. The flexible, high-yielding, and scalable route described here will facilitate convergent syntheses and give access to analogues
