Abstract
N-(Trifluoroacetyl)succinimide, easily prepared from trifluoroacetic anhydr ide and succinimide forms a novel, convenient trifluoroacetylating reagent. It trifluoroacetylates alcohols, phenols and amines, to generate trifluoro acetate esters, and trifluoroacetamides in excellent yields with very effic ient work up procedures.
