1-cyclopropyl-2,2,2-trifluoroethanol

Conditions: temp:0.00; pressure:0.00; stir:; See reaction.notes.procedure_details.

Procedure: According to Reference Example 8-12, by use of cyclopropanecarbaldehyde (300 mg, 4.28 mmol) dissolved in tetrahydrofuran (6 mL), a 1 mol/L solution of tetrabutylammonium fluoride in tetrahydrofuran (0.856 mL, 0.856 mmol) and (trifluoromethyl)trimethylsilane (0.759 mL, 5.14 mmol), the mixture was stirred and reacted at room temperature for 1.7 hours. Then, purification by extraction gave 1-cyclopropyl-2,2,2-trifluoroethanol (Compound EB) (161 mg, yield: 27%). reacted at room temperature for 1.7 hours Then, purification by extraction
