Abstract
Abstract A simple, two-step-procedure for the synthesis of optically active (S)-1-(2- fluorophenyl)-ethylamine (1) is described. Starting from commercially available 2-fluoro- acetophenone (2), imination with (S)-1-phenyl-ethylamine (3), followed by stereoselective hydrogenation over Raney-nickel gives the secondary amine 5a. Subsequent regioselective hydrogenolytic cleavage of homogenous 5a yields enantiomerically pure 1
