Fluorine-containing drugs approved by the FDA in 2021

Jingrui He et al.

Summary: This review article presents nine newly approved fluorine-containing drugs by the US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) in 2021. These small molecule drugs feature aromatic fluo-rine, trifluoromethyl, and chlorodifluoro groups. The therapeutic areas of these fluorine-containing drugs include multiple myeloma, lymphoma, HIV, chronic heart failure, chronic myeloid leukemia, (ANCA)-associated vasculitis, migraines, von Hippel-Lindau disease, and non-small cell lung cancer. The review also discusses the brief biological activities and synthetic methods for each of these nine drugs.

TMSCF2Br-Enabled Fluorination-Aminocarbonylation of Aldehydes: Modular Access to α-Fluoroamides

An Liu et al.

Summary: A protocol has been developed for the modular assembly of the alpha-fluoroamide motif, allowing for the efficient synthesis of diverse alpha-fluoroamides from readily available aldehydes and tertiary amines through a three-component fluorination-aminocarbonylation process. The success of the process relies on the unique difluorocarbene reagent TMSCF2Br, with the mechanism involving 1,2-fluorine and oxygen migrations of the in situ formed intermediates.

Divergent Reaction of Activated Pyridines with α,α-Difluorinated gem-Diols: Regioselective Synthesis of gem-Difluorinated Dihydropyridines and Dihydropyridones

Koushik Patra et al.

Summary: The nucleophilic reactivity of alpha,alpha-difluorinated gem-diols has been utilized to selectively synthesize biologically relevant 1,4-dihydropyridines and 3,4-dihydro-2-pyridones adorned with the valuable gem-difluoromethylene motif. The method is scalable, high yielding, and compatible with a wide range of substrates and functional groups. Additionally, the synthesis of difluorinated oxa-azabicyclo [3.3.1] nonane frameworks has been demonstrated through product diversification.

Ligand-Dependent Regiodivergent Enantioselective Allylic Alkylations of α-Trifluoromethylated Ketones

Yi Zhu et al.

Summary: The asymmetric introduction of the CF3 unit can modify pharmacokinetic properties and slow metabolic degradation in medicinal chemistry. Computational studies show that the choice of ligand in a designed palladium-complex system regulates the regioselectivity and stereoselectivity of the asymmetric allylic alkylation of alpha-CF3 ketones and Morita-Baylis-Hillman adducts.

Asymmetric Synthesis of α-Difluorinated β-Amino Sulfones through Detrifluoroacetylative Mannich Reactions

Ziyi Li et al.

Summary: An asymmetric detrifluoroacetylative Mannich reaction has been developed for the synthesis of α-difluorinated β-amino sulfone products from alpha-fluorinated arylsulfonyl gem-diols and fluoroalkyl imines. The reaction shows good tolerance towards different substrates, high diastereoselectivity, and can be scaled up without compromising the yield and stereochemical outcome. The synthetic value of the products is demonstrated through two further transformations.
