Catalysis of the reaction between fluorine and a range of 2-substituted carbonyl compounds has been investigated. Most notably, the preparation of diethyl-2-fluoromalonate has been achieved in high yield by fluorination of diethylmalonate in the presence of hydrated copper nitrate. Reactions between fluorine and carbanions derived from 2-substituted carbonyl compounds, including phosphonates, sulphones
amines catalyzed the asymmetric Michael addition of ethyl 2-fluoro-2-nitroacetate to enones to provide chiral α-fluoro-α-nitro ester ketones with two contiguous stereogenic centers, one of which is a fluorinated quaternary chiral center, with excellent enantioselectivities and in moderate to good yields.

α-Fluoro-α-nitro esters were used as reaction partners in Michaeladdition to nitroalkenes, and the products were obtained in excellent chemical yields and with high enantioselectivities. Moreover, α-fluoro-α-amino ester with a quaternary α-carbon was prepared for the first time.

The first synthesis of α-fluoro-α-nitrocarboxamides 11b, c has been achieved by ammonolysis of the corresponding ethyl esters 6b, c. However, α-fluoro-α-nitrocarboxylic acids 8a-c derived from the corresponding esters 6a-c were found to decarboxylate readily to form 1-fluoro-1-nitroalkanes 9a-c. Reduction of the α-fluoro-α-nitrocarboxamide derivatives 11b, c produced the defluorination products 12b, c instead of the desired novel α-fluoro-α-aminocarboxamide 2.

Heterocycles substituted with a nitromethyl (CH2NO2) or phenyl-nitromethyl (CHPhNO2) group were prepared by reaction of a methyl- or phenylmethyl-substituted heterocycle, respectively, with lithium di-isopropylamide followed by quenching the intermediate carbanion with methyl nitrate. Conversion of CH2NO2 attached to an alkyl or aryl moiety into a dichloronitromethyl (CCl2NO2) group was achieved using N-chlorosuccinimide and 1,8-diazabicyclo[5.4.0] undec-7-ene (DBU) in dichloromethane. Similarly, CH2NO2 attached to an alkyl or aryl group was converted into difluoronitromethyl (CF2NO2) using either 1-chloromethyl-4-fluoro-1,4-diazoniabicyclo[2.2.2]octane bis( tetrafluoroborate) (Selectfluor (TM)) or N-fluorobenzenesulfonimide with DBU as base and dichloromethane as solvent. Reaction of omega-nitroacetophenone with Selectfluor/DBU in dimethylformamide followed by acidification and distillation gave the parent difluoronitromethane in a useful 'one-pot' procedure.
