Abstract
In the reduction of polysubstituted piperidinoisoxazolidines, we have observed two competitive cyclisation pathways, leading to either indolizidines or epoxides. The yields of indolizidines can be optimised by an appropriate choice of the reducing agent and through a careful control of the work-up conditions.
