Desymmetrization of Cyclic 1,3-Diketones under N-Heterocyclic Carbene Organocatalysis: Access to Organofluorines with Multiple Stereogenic Centers

Symmetric 1,3-diketones with fluorine or fluorinated substituents on the prochiral carbon remain to be established. Herein, we have developed a novel prochiral fluorinated oxindanyl 1,3-diketone and successfully applied these substrates in carbene-catalyzed asymmetric desymmetrization. Accordingly,...
