Abstract The present Full Paper article discloses a survey of our recent results obtained in the context of the enantioselective halogenation-initiated semi-pinacol rearrangement. Commencing with the fluorination/semi-pinacol reaction first and moving to the heavier halogens (bromine and iodine) second, the scope and limitations of the halogenative phase-transfer methodology will be discussed and compared. An extension of the fluorination/semi-pinacol reaction to the ring-expansion of five-membered allylic cyclopentanols will be also described, as well as some preliminary results on substrates prone to desymmetrization will be given. Finally, the present manuscript will culminate with a detailed mechanistic investigation of the canonical fluorination/semi-pinacol reaction. Our mechanistic discussion will be based on in situ reaction progress monitoring, complemented with substituent effect, kinetic isotopic effect and non-linear behaviour studies.
