Transaminases as suitable catalysts for the synthesis of enantiopure β,β-difluoroamines

Marina Garcia-Ramos et al.

Summary: Transaminases have demonstrated the ability to catalyze the amination of α,α-difluorinated ketones, yielding β,β-difluoroamines with high yields and enantiomeric excess. This reaction can be quantitatively transformed by employing a small molar excess of the amine donor, and scaled up successfully.
