Abstract
A practical synthetic method for 2,2'-disubstituted fluorinated binaphthyl derivatives was achieved using magnesium bis(2,2,6,6-tetramethylpiperamide) [Mg(TMP)2], prepared from LiTMP (2 equiv) and MgBr2 (1 equiv), which allows for access to a variety of fluorinated binaphthyl compounds. The utility of the fluorinated binaphthyl backbone was evaluated in F10BINOL derived chiral mono-phosphoric acid (R)-19 as the chiral Brønsted acid catalyst. The catalyst (R)-19 performs exceptionally well in the catalytic enantioselective imino-ene reaction, demonstrating the potential of a fluorinated binaphthyl framework. Chirality 27:464-475, 2015.
