Abstract
N,N-Dialkyl(3,3,3-trifluoro-1-propynyl)amines were readily prepared by a th ree-step procedure starting from commercially available 2,2,3,3,3 -pentaflu oropropanol. These fluorinated alkynylamines reacted smoothly with a variet y of aldehydes or ketones in the presence of a catalytic amount of Lewis ac id and;molecular sieves 4 Angstrom at ambient temperature to produce the co rresponding alpha-(trifluoromethyl)-alpha,beta -unsaturated amides in good to excellent yields with high Z-stereoselectivity.
