Due to their numerous applications, fluorinated amino acids have recently attracted significant attention. The preparation of fluorine-containing phenylalanines and aliphatic fluorinated amino acids using Mitsunobu-Tsunoda alkylation of a chiral nucleophilic glycine equivalent with readily available alc. substrates is described. The reaction proceeds in high yields and with excellent diastereoselectivity. This method provides an efficient synthetic route to fluorinated amino acids for which asym. approaches are scarce.
