An efficient versatile method is presented for the stereospecific synthesis of (+)-4hydroxy-3-phenyltetrahydroisoquinoline 11 and 12 using (R)-arylcyanohydrins as the chiral starting material. From this asymmetric core, the synthetic process proceeds with development of the S absolute stereochemistry for the phenyl group at C-3 and the R configuration at C-1 of the target heterocycle. As the protective group protocol allows the stereospecific deprotection at C4, (3S,4R)-(+)-4-hydroxy-3-phenyltetrahydroisoquinolines have been prepared using this process.
