Synthesis of a Chiral Quaternary Carbon Center Bearing a Fluorine Atom: Enantio- and Diastereoselective Guanidine-Catalyzed Addition of Fluorocarbon Nucleophiles
The perfect combination: The title reaction provides adducts having quaternarycarboncentersbearing a fluorineatom with high ee and d.r. values (see scheme). The mechanism and origin of stereoselectivity were elucidated by DFT calculations. The bifunctional mode of the guanidine catalysis was demonstrated in the transition states resulting from the DFT results.

Constructing α‐stereogenic amides and ketones: The highly regioselective and enantioselectiveconjugateaddition of 1,3‐dicarbonyl compounds to 1,4‐dicarbonyl but‐2‐enes has been developed with the chiral bicyclic guanidine as catalyst (ee values up to 97 %; see scheme).
