A novel one-pot reaction involving organocopper-mediated reduction/transmetalation/asymmetric alkylation, leading to the diastereoselective synthesis of functionalized (Z)-fluoroalkene dipeptide isosteres.

By a novel one-pot reaction sequence involving consecutive organocopper-mediated reduction, transmetalation and asymmetric alkylation, a highly diastereoselective synthesis of functionalized (Z)-fluoroalkene dipeptide isosteres was achieved in good to excellent yields.
