Ligand-Promoted Asymmetric Imino-Reformatsky Reaction of Ethyl Dibromofluoroacetate
摘要:
An enantioselective Reformatsky reaction has been developed for the reaction of ethyl dibromofluoroacetate (1) with an imine. This method represents the first ligand-promoted imino-Reformatslcy approach to use a halofluoroacetate. The use of an amino alcohol ligand allowed for the preparation of enantioenriched alpha-bromo-alpha-fluoro-beta-lactams in good yields with enantioselectivities up to 96% ee. This process also provided access to beta-lactam rings bearing two stereogenic centers.
