Abstract
Chiral oxazolidines 2a−e can be diastereoselectively alkylated with BrCF2CO2Et to furnish 3,3-difluoroazetidin-2-ones 3a−e with up to 99% de. Selective cleavage of the chiral appendage provided the corresponding unsubstituted azetidinones. Formation of optically pure α,α-difluoro-β-amino acids 5a−c can be achieved by acidic hydrolysis of N-vinyl-azetidin-2-ones.
