Reaction Steps

A mixture of 7 g. (0.051 mole) of 3,4-methylenedioxyaniline, 14.5 g. (0.051 mole) 2,2,2-trifluoroethyl trichloromethanesulfonate, and 5.2 g. (0.052 mole) of triethylamine in 60 ml. of toluene was heated under reflux for 31/2 hours. The cooled mixture was washed with water, dried over anhydrous magnesium sulfate, and concentrated under reduced pressure. The oily residue is distilled (b.p. 1.9 mm. 103°-5°) to give pure 3,4-methylenedioxy-N-(2,2,2-trifluoroethyl)aniline.
