Abstract
A general method for synthesizing optically active, primary, secondary, and tertiary organofluorides was developed. This chiral pool synthesis utilized the skeleton of arabinose to generate diastereomerically pure 2-oxazolidinone-fused aziridines, which underwent ring opening with a fluoride anion. The adducts, polyoxygenated organofluorides, were useful precursors to various fluorinated compounds, such as fluorinated amino acids.
