title: Facile stereoselective synthesis of fluorinated flavanone derivatives via a one-pot tandem reaction.
abstract: A series of fluorinated flavanones were synthesized in moderate to good yields with excellent diastereoselectivities under mild reaction conditions via a one-pot tandem procedure involving a proline-catalyzed Knoevenagel condensation, a Michael addition, and an electrophilic fluorination by NFSI.
