    Copyright © 2008 American Chemical SocietyA methodology for the enantioselective synthesis of α-fluorinated β²-amino acids has been developed from readily available carboxylic acids 3. Conversion to the Evan's oxazolidinone followed by enantioselective fluorination and alkylation gave 7 in high diastereomeric excess (>95%). Subsequent removal of the oxazolidinone and amination at the Bn-protected hydroxyl center gave optically active α-fluorinated β²-amino acids.Michael K. Edmonds, Florian H. M.
