Abstract:A regio‐ and diastereoselective conjugate addition reaction of Grignard reagents to fluoroalkyl α,β‐unsaturated N‐tert‐butanesulfinyl ketimines was disclosed. A range of different fluoroalkyls and Grignard reagents were well tolerated, giving up to 99% diastereomeric and regioisomeric ratios. This reaction provided a straightforward method for the synthesis of a variety of enantiomerically enriched α‐fluorinated enamines and derivatives which are difficult to achieve with other methods.
