Abstract
A series of spirocyclic carbaldehydes were successfully fluorinated using enamine catalysis, furnishing the corresponding tertiary fluorides in both high yields and enantioselectivities. The fluorinated spirocycles provide a set of novel building blocks interesting from a medicinal chemistry point of view.
