Participants

Reaction Steps

To a solution of 2-amino-4,4,4-trifluoro-3-methylbutan-1-ol (580 mg, 3.69 mmol) in DCM (13 ml) was added triethylamine (1.132 ml, 8.12 mmol) and added dropwise a solution of triphosgene (329 mg, 1.107 mmol) in 1 mL in DCM (3 ml) over 10 min. The reaction mixture was washed with sat. NH4Cl solution (13 ml) dry, and concentrated in vacuo. Afforded 450 mg (It yellow solid). Used crude in the next step. 1H NMR (400 MHz, CDCl3) b 5.91 (d, J=13.3 Hz, 1H), 4.61-4.34 (m, 1H), 4.22-4.00 (m, 2H), 3.05 (q, J=7.3 Hz, 1H), 2.54-2.14 (m, 1H), 1.34 (t, J=7.3 Hz, 1H), 1.17 (d, J=7.1 Hz, 2H), 1.09 (d, J=7.1 Hz, 1H).
