A double-enzyme-catalyzed strategy for the synthesis of enantiocomplementary vicinal fluoro alcohols through a one-pot, three-step process including lipase-catalyzed hydrolysis, spontaneous decarboxylative fluorination, and subsequent ketoreductase-catalyzed reduction was developed. With this approach, β-ketonic esters were converted to the corresponding vicinal fluoro alcohols with high isolated yields (up to 92percent) and stereoselectivities (up to 99percent). This new cascade process addresses some issues in comparison with traditional methods such as environmentally hazardous reaction conditions and low stereoselectivity outcome.
Mechanistic investigations of cooperative catalysis in the enantioselective fluorination of epoxides

This report describes mechanistic studies of the (salen)Co- and amine-cocatalyzed enantioselective ring opening of epoxides by fluoride. The kinetics of the reaction, as determined by in situ 19F NMR analysis, are characterized by apparent first-order dependence on (salen)Co. Substituent effects, nonlinear effects, and reactivity with a linked (salen)Co catalyst provide evidence for a rate-limiting, bimetallic ring-opening step. To account for these divergent data, we propose a mechanism wherein the active nucleophilic fluorine species is a cobalt fluoride that forms a resting-state dimer. Axial ligation of the amine cocatalyst to (salen)Co facilitates dimer dissociation and is the origin of the observed cooperativity. On the basis of these studies, we show that significant improvements in the rates, turnover numbers, and substrate scope of the fluoride ring-opening reactions can be realized through the use of a linked salen framework. Application of this catalyst system to a rapid (5 min) fluorination to generate the unlabeled analog of a known PET tracer, F-MISO, is reported.
Asymmetric reduction using (R)-MeCBS and determination of absolute configuration of para-substituted 2-fluoroarylethanols

The asymmetric reduction of eight α-fluoroacetophenones has been investigated using (R)-MeCBS as a catalyst in various media. Based on a solvent screen, 1,2-dimethoxyethane, diethyl ether and dichloromethane were used in reductions of the α-fluoroacetophe
