31. Attempts to debenzylate the benzyloxy alcohols 1, prepared via the fluoroallylboration of benzaldehyde bearing electron-withdrawing groups, such as p -fluoro, p -chloro, and p -trifluoromethyl groups, resulted in dehalogenation along with debenzylation forming 2a, 2a, and 2c, respectively. Debenyzlation of the benzyloxy alcohol derived from p -nitrobenzaldehyde resulted in the formation of the corresponding p -amino compound, 3,3-difluoro-4-hydroxy-4-(4- aminophenyl)butan-2-one.
