Asymmetric Friedel鈥揅rafts Reactions of N-tert-Butylsulfinyl-3,3,3-trifluoroacetaldimines: General Access to Enantiomerically Pure Indoles Containing a 1-Amino-2,2,2-trifluoroethyl Group
文摘
We have demonstrated that 3,3,3-trifluoroacetaldimine (S)-1 easily reacts with indole derivatives under Friedel鈥揅rafts reactions to provide reliable and generalized access to biologically interesting compounds containing the CF3CH(NH2)鈥?pharmacophoric group. The reactions proceed with high rates and generally excellent yields (>90%) and stereochemical outcomes (99:1 dr).
