- using ethyl fluoroacetate as the internal standard. Initially, the effect of Brønsted acidity was explored by varying the amine/HF ratio with mixtures of commercially available NEt3/HF 1:3 and Olah’s reagent (pyr/HF 1:9.23). Lower amine/HF ratios (1:4.5) resulted in poor conversion (9% yield, Table 1
- , entry 1), whereas increasing the Brønsted acidity to 1:7.5 furnished the desired α-fluoroketone 2 in 64% yield (Table 1, entry 2). However, employing Olah’s reagent (1:9.23) had a negative impact on the efficiency (45% yield, Table 1, entry 3) thereby allowing a plateau to be established (vide infra
- ). Having established that an amine/HF ratio of 1:7.5 provides the optimal Brønsted acidity for catalysis, a solvent screen was conducted to assess the effect of the reaction medium. Chlorinated solvents proved to be most effective, with reactions performed in CHCl3 slightly outperforming those in CH2Cl2

- no enantioselectivity at all. As arylboronic acids have been harnessed to enhance the Brønsted acidity in asymmetric organocatalysis in combination with chiral diols or chiral aminoalcohols [40][41][42][43][44], we envisioned that the simultaneous use of arylboronic acids and chiral Brønsted acids
- limited Brønsted acidity of chiral phosphoric acids. Bearing this in mind, we then turned our attention to chiral disulfonimides developed by List, which have been established as a unique type of stronger Brønsted acids [45]. Putting it into practice, a range of BINOL-derived disulfonimides was used as
- attributed to the increased Brønsted acidity when the strong electron-withdrawing trifluoromethyl group was placed on the benzene ring of the arylboronic acid. Removing the boronic acid from the reaction system leads to a dramatic decrease in both yield and enantiocontrol (Table 1, entry 16). The challenge
