ethyl 4,4,4-trifluoro-3-methylbut-2-enoate

Conditions: temp:0.00; pressure:0.00; stir:

Conditions: temp:80.01; pressure:0.00; stir:; See reaction.notes.procedure_details.

Procedure: (300 mg, 1.65 mmol) 4,4,4-Trifluoro-3-methyl-but-2-enoic acid ethyl ester (CAS 24490-03-7) was dissolved in ethanol (3 ml) and hydrazine monohydrate 64% in ethanol (0.13 ml, 1.73 mmol, 1.05 equiv.) was added at room temperature and stirred in a sealed tube for 16 hours at 80° C. The reaction mixture was evaporated to dryness. The desired (RS)-5-methyl-5-trifluoromethyl-pyrazolidin-3-one (280 mg, quant.) was obtained as a white solid, MS: m/e=169.2 (M+H+). The reaction mixture was evaporated to dryness

Procedure: To a solution of 4.5 g of ethyl 4,4,4-trifluoro-3-methyl-2-butenoate in 50 ml of tetrahydrofuran was added dropwise 48 ml of diisobutylaluminum hydride (1.02M solution in hexane) under ice-cooling. The reaction mixture was stirred at the same temperature for 2 hours. To the reaction mixture was added diluted sulfuric acid and then extracted with t-butyl methyl ether. The organic layer was dried over anhydrous magnesium sulfate, and then concentrated under reduced pressure to obtain crude 4,4,4-trifluoro-3-methyl-2-buten-1-ol. cooling extracted with t-butyl methyl ether The organic layer was dried over anhydrous magnesium sulfate concentrated under reduced pressure
