The β-borylation reaction of α,β-unsaturated aldehyde-derived imines, formed in situ, has been studied using a one-pot methodology, as a route to β-boryl aldehydes. The instability of the β-boryl aldehydes meant that derivatisation was required and routes

We report efficient, catalytic, asymmetric total syntheses of both (R)-fluoxetine and (S)-duloxetine from α,β-unsaturated aldehydes conducting five sequential one-pot steps (imine formation/copper mediated β-borylation/transimination/reduction/oxidation) followed by the specific ether group formation which deliver the desired products (R)-fluoxetine in 45% yield (96% ee) and (S)-duloxetine in 47% yield (94% ee).
