Diethyl Ether → 2-[(2S)-Piperidin-2-yl]ethan-1-ol

Piperidine-2-ethanol (127 g, 980 mmol) in 95% EtOH (260 mL) was added to (S)-(+)-camphorsulfonic acid (228.7 g, 1.0 eq.) in 95% EtOH (150 mL) and the resulting solution was warmed to reflux. To the warm solution was added Et2O (600 mL) and the solution cooled to room temperature and let stand 3 days. The resulting crystals were filtered and dried in vacuo (25 g): mp 173–173° C. (lit. 168° C.). The salt was then dissolved in NaOH (3M, 100 mL) and stirred 2 hours and the resulting solution was extracted with CH2Cl2 (5×100 mL). The combined organics were dried over Na2SO4, filtered, filtered and concentrated under reduced pressure to give (S)-piperidine-2-ethanol (7.8 g) a portion of which was recrystallized from Et2O: mp=69–70° C. (lit. 68–69° C.); [α]D=14.090 (CHCl3, c=0.2).
