Amphiphilic Polyfluorinated Amino Ethers from Cyclic Sulfamidates.

Regioselective ring opening of cyclic sulfamidates was achieved by means of nucleophilic polyfluorinated alkoxides to access achiral and chiral ß- and γ-ORF amines and α-amino esters. Subsequent transformations provide free amines ready for incorporation into bioactive substances through amide bond formation or nucleophilic aromatic substitution.
