✦ Synopsis
The reaction of chiral 2-trifluoromethyl-1,3-oxazolidines with various silylated nucleophiles under Lewis acid activation provides a stereoselective route to functionalized a-trifluoromethylamines. This methodology was successfully applied to the diastereoselective synthesis of trifluoromethylated homoallylic and propargylic amines, trifluoromethylated a-amino nitrile, b-aminoketone and b-aminoester. The a-amino nitrile and the b-amino ester were converted into (+)-3,3,3-trifluoroalanine and (+)-4,4,4-trifluoro-3-aminobutanoic acid in a one-step procedure.
