| Abstract
| - An efficient catalytic enantioselective fluorination of tert-butoxycarbonyl lactones and lactams is reported.Reactions of the lactone substrates proceeded smoothly in an alcoholic solvent with a catalytic amountof chiral Pd(II) complex. In the case of the less acidic lactam substrates, concurrent use of the Pd complexand 2,6-lutidine as a cocatalyst was effective. Under the reaction conditions, the fluorinated lactones andlactams were obtained in good yield with excellent enantioselectivity (94−99% ee).
