A protocol for the stereodivergent pentafluoroethylation of N-sulfinylimines has been developed using HFC-125 with KHMDS/triglyme. The presence or absence of triglyme enables the selective synthesis of both diastereomers of the pentafluoroethylated amines. This additive-controlled protocol offers a straightforward and cost-effective alternative to the previously reported base-controlled stereodivergent trifluoromethylation using potassium hexamethyldisilazide (KHMDS) versus P4-tBu.

Both diastereomers of the pentafluoroethylated amines can be selectively synthesized based on the presence or absence of triglyme. This additive-controlled protocol allows the KHMDS/triglyme cryptate to be a straightforward and cheap alternative to previously reported base-controlled stereodivergent trifluoromethylation using potassium hexamethyldisilazide (KHMDS) versus P4-tBu.
