A direct α-fluorination of N-acyloxazolidinones based on the unique reactivity of group IVa metal enolates has been developed. The reaction is an experimentally simple, low-cost, quick, and energy-efficient alternative for asymmetric α-fluorination of N-acyloxazolidinones. Preliminary studies have shown compatibility with alkyl, alkenyl, and alkynyl, aromatic, and several heteroaromatic substituents. High diastereoselectivities have been achieved with most substrates tested, and the reaction is typically complete within 1 h at ambient temperature.

The copper-catalyzed enantioselective conjugate addition (ECA) of organometallic nucleophiles to electron-deficient alkenes (Michael acceptors) represents an efficient and attractive methodology for providing a wide range of relevant chiral molecules. In order to increase the attractiveness of this useful catalytic transformation, some Michael acceptors bearing challenging electron-deficient functions (i.e.

The identification of Yb(OTf) through a multivariable high-throughput experimentation strategy has enabled a unified protocol for the direct conversion of enantioenriched N-acyloxazolidinones to the corresponding chiral esters, amides, and carboxylic acids. This straightforward and catalytic method has shown remarkable chemoselectivity for substitution at the acyclic N-acyl carbonyl for a diverse array of N-acyloxazolidinone substrates. The ionic radius of the Lewis acid catalyst was demonstrated as a key driver of catalyst performance that led to the identification of a robust and scalable esterification of a pharmaceutical intermediate using catalytic Y(OTf).

A synthetic route to chiral selenazolines from readily available N-acyloxazolidinones via a selenative rearrangement of a chiral cyclic skeleton is reported. The reaction proceeds in the presence of elemental selenium, a hydrochlorosilane, and an amine. Although the stability of the obtained selenazoline products is relatively low, a wide range of selenazolines was successfully prepared.

The preparation of the C-5' diastereomers of 5'-homoaristeromycin has been achieved in 6 steps beginning with readily available (3aR,6aR)-2,2-dimethyl-2H,3aH,4H,6aH-cyclopenta[1,3]dioxol-4-one in a Michael reaction employing chiral Evans N-acyloxazolidinones that served to direct the requisite side chain stereochemistry. The two targets were evaluated against a battery of viruses and found to possess activity only towards yellow fever. Both compounds were non-cytotoxic.
