A New Method for Production of Chiral 2-Aryl-2-fluoropropanoic Acids Using an Effective Kinetic Resolution of Racemic 2-Aryl-2-fluoropropanoic Acids

Abstract: We report a new method for the preparation of chiral 2-aryl-2-fluoropropanoic acids, including 2-fluoroibuprofen, a fluorinated analogue of non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs), by the kinetic resolution of racemic 2-aryl-2-fluoropropanoic acids using enantioselective esterification. By applying pivalic anhydride (Piv2O) as a coupling agent, bis(α-naphthyl)methanol [(α-Np)2CHOH] as an achiral alcohol, and (+)-benzotetramisole (BTM) as a chiral acyl-transfer catalyst, a series of racemic 2-aryl-2-fluo… Show more

“…High s values were obtained, especially when the aryl group is ortho ‐substituted. Shiina's group also extended this approach to 2‐aryl‐2‐fluoropropanoic acids, leading to optically active carboxylic acids, each containing a quaternary stereocenter in the α‐position to the carboxyl group, with s values of up to 242.…”

“…However, to the best of our knowledge, a general method for the kinetic resolution of racemic 2-hydroxyamide derivatives has not been reported to date. We recently accomplished the first KR of racemic alcohols with achiral carboxylic acids and of racemic carboxylic acids with achiral alcohols by asymmetric esterification [ 14 , 15 , 16 , 17 , 18 , 19 , 20 , 21 , 22 , 23 , 24 , 25 , 26 , 27 ] via the in situ formation of a mixed anhydride using carboxylic anhydrides as coupling reagents combined with chiral acyl-transfer catalysts. Furthermore, KR of racemic 2-hydroxyalkanoates with diphenylacetic acid was achieved using pivalic anhydride in the presence of ( R )-benzotetramisole [ 27 , 28 ] (( R )-BTM; Scheme 1 ; (i)).…”
