摘要

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-fluoroacetophenones. The enantiomeric excess of the products depended on the solvent and the electronic character of the aromatic substituents. Higher enantioselectivity and less solvent ...
