Reported herein is a Zn/Prophenol-catalyzed Mannich reaction using fluorinated aromatic ketones as nucleophilic partners for the direct enantio- and diastereoselective construction of β-fluoroamine motifs featuring a fluorinated tetrasubstituted carbon. The reaction can be run on a gram scale with a low catalyst loading without impacting its efficiency. Moreover, a related aldol reaction was also developed. Together, these reactions provide a new approach for the preparation of pharmaceutically ...[more]
