An efficient diastereoselective synthesis of cis- and trans-5-hydroxy-(2S)-N-benzyloxycarbonyl pipecolic acids, starting from trans-4-hydroxy-l-proline is described. The key synthetic strategies involve the regioisomeric ring expansion of keto ester 8 and diastereoselective reduction of ketone 11 in high selectivity and yield.
