α-Fluoroalkenoates and 4-fluoro-5-isoxazolidinones are of vast interest due to their potential biological applications. We now demonstrate the syntheses of (E)-α-fluoroalkenoates and 4-fluoro-5-isoxazolidinones by the reactions between nitrones and α-fluoro-α-bromoacetate. By altering N-substituents in nitrones, (E)-α-fluoroalkenoates and 4-fluoro-5-isoxazolidinones can be achieved, respectively, with high chemo- and stereoselectivities. Experimental and computational studies have been conducted to elucidate the reaction mechanisms. Linear free energy relationship studies further revealed that the N-substituent effects are primarily of electronic origin. Copyright
