Summary
-
1.
In the verification of methods described in the literature for the stereospecific synthesis of cis- and trans-decahydroquinolines and cis- and trans-octahydro-1-pyrindines it was shown that in many cases mixtures of isomers are actually formed.
-
2.
A convenient method is proposed for the synthesis of the cis isomers of decahydroquinoline and octahydro-1-pyrindine, and the probable mechanism of the reductive cyclization of 2-oxocyclohexane- and 2-oxocyclopentane-propionitrues is discussed.
