Procedure

Under a blanket of nitrogen, 2020.9 g (14.22 moles) of ethyl trifluoroacetate was charged to a 12-liter flask equipped with an overhead stirrer, an addition funnel, thermometer, and a condenser. To the stirred ethyl trifluoroacetate, 2015.0 g (15.59 moles) of dibutyl amine was added over a two hour period, during which the temperature of the stirred reaction mixture rose from 20° to 40° C. At the end of the addition period, the reaction flask was equipped with an 8 inch packed column and distillation head. The ethanol by-product was then removed by distillation with a maximum pot temperature of 135° C. The reaction mixture was then cooled and the product was isolated by distillation, boiling range 79°-87° C. at 2.2-3.2 mmHg. Yield 2850 g (89.0%).
