Hydrogen bonding phase-transfer catalysis with ionic reactants: enantioselective synthesis of γ-fluoroamines

Ammonium salts are used as phase-transfer catalysts for fluorination with alkali metal fluoride. We now demonstrate that these organic salts, specifically azetidinium triflates, are suitable substrates for enantioselective ring opening with CsF and a chiral bis-urea catalyst. This process that highl...
