Abstract
A highly π-facial selective and regioselective fluorination of chiral enamides is described. The reaction involves an enantioselective fluorination exclusively at the electron-rich enamide olefin with N-F reagents such as Selectfluor and N-fluoro-benzenesulfonimide [NFSI] accompanied by trapping of the β-fluoro-iminium cationic intermediate with water. The resulting N,O-hemiacetal could be oxidized using Dess-Martin periodinane, leading to an asymmetric sequence for syntheses of chiral α-fluoro-imides and optically enriched α-fluoro-ketones.Entities:
