The title piperidines were prepared by (a) methanolysis of the corresponding nitriles and (b) addition of p ‐chlorothiophenol to the appropriate tetrahydropyridines. Three esters were obtained with stereochemistry assigned by nmr analysis: 2 [3(a) SAr, 4(e) CO 2 Me], 5 [4(e) SAr, 3(e) CO 2 Me], 6 [4(a) SAr, 3(e) CO 2 Me]. Compounds 2 and 6 cyclized in 70% sulfuric acid. The product structures were established by X‐ray crystallography and, surprisingly, both had trans‐fused rings. Compound 5 , however, did not cyclize but gave 4‐(methylthio)chlorobenzene as the sole isolated product.
