Procedure

A mixture of 20 mmole of N-(3-bromopropyl)phthalimide and 22 mmole of triphenylphosphine in 50 ml of benzene is heated at reflux temperature for 2 days. The solid which separates on cooling is filtered, washed with benzene and dried under reduced pressure to give 3-phthalimidopropyl triphenylphosphonium bromide. To a solution of 100 ml of dry liquid ammonia is added finely divided sodium (0.46 g or 2 × 10-2M) and a catalytic amount of ferric nitrate. When the blue sodium solution turns gray 10 g or 2 × 10-2M of finely powdered 3-phthalimidopropyltriphenylphosphonium bromide is added. After stirring for 15 minutes the ammonia is evaporated under a stream of nitrogen. To the residue is added 100 ml of anhydrous benzene and the solution is boiled for about 10 minutes under nitrogen. The solid residue is filtered pff and to the filtrate, containing salt free 3-phthalimidopropylidene triphenylphosphorane is added 6.6 g of 5 × 10-2M of ethyl trifluoroacetate. The reaction mixture is heated at reflux temperature under nitrogen for 12 hours. Concentration of the solvent leaves a residue which is distilled under high vacuum to afford 2-ethoxy-1,1,1-trifluoro-5-phthalimidopent-2ene. A solution of 3 g of 2-ethoxy-1,1,1-trifluoro-5-phthalimidopent- 2-ene in 50 ml of ether is treated with a solution of 1 M of sulfuric acid in 50 ml of water. The reaction mixture is stirred for one half hour at 25° C. The ether phase is separated, washed with brine, and dried over magnesium sulfate and concenrated to give trifluoromethyl 3-phthalimidopropyl ketone.
