Crystallization-Induced Dynamic Resolution of Fox Chiral Auxiliary and Application to the Diastereoselective Electrophilic Fluorination of Amide Enolates
A highly
efficient crystallization-induced dynamic resolution (CIDR) of <i>trans</i>-<b>Fox</b> (fluorinated oxazolidine) chiral
auxiliary is reported. This chiral auxiliary was used for highly diastereoselective
(>98% <i>de</i>) electrophilic fluorination of amide
enolates. After removal of the chiral auxiliary, highly valuable enantiopure
α-fluorocarboxylic acids and β-fluoroalcohols are obtained
Synthesis of Enantiopure <i>trans</i>-2,5-Disubstituted Trifluoromethylpyrrolidines and (2<i>S</i>,5<i>R</i>)‑5-Trifluoromethylproline
Enantiopure <i>trans</i>-2,5-disubstituted trifluoromethylpyrrolidines
were prepared on a several gram scale starting from a readily available
chiral fluorinated oxazolidine (Fox). A pure oxazolopyrrolidine intermediate
could be obtained after an efficient separation by selective diastereomer
destruction. The addition of various Grignard reagents on this oxazolopyrrolidine
provided disubstituted pyrrolidines with moderate to complete <i>trans</i> diastereoselectivity. The highly valuable compound
(2<i>S</i>,5<i>R</i>)-5-trifluoromethylproline
could be synthesized from the same oxazolopyrrolidine intermediate
via a Strecker-type reaction
