3,3,3-trifluoro-2-oxopropanal

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

Procedure: To a mixture of amino-carbamimidoyl-acetic acid ethyl ester (2 g, 9.22 mmol) and water (50 ml), a 20% aqueous solution of trifluoropyruvic aldehyde (2.32 g, 18.43 mmol) was added. To this mixture, sodium acetate (5.29 g, 64.52 mmol) was added (pH of the reaction mixture was pH5). The reaction mixture was left to stir at RT overnight. The resultant precipitate was filtered under vacuum purification by chromatography on silica eluting with iso-hexane:EtOAc (gradient of 0 to 10% EtOAc) afforded the title compound The reaction mixture was left The resultant precipitate was filtered under vacuum purification by chromatography on silica eluting with iso-hexane

Procedure: The title compound was prepared using standard chemical manipulations and procedures similar to those used for the preparation of compound 16.2, except 3-methyloxetane-3-carbaldehyde was used in place of acetaldehyde and 2-oxopropanal was used in place of 3,3,3-trifluoro-2-oxopropanal (compound 16.1). m/z (ES+) 153 (M+H)+.

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

Procedure: A solution of 3,3,3-trifluoro-2-oxopropanal (0.31 g, 2.3 mmol; Intermediate 43) in DMF (10 mL) was cooled to 0° C. and a solution of N-benzylethane-1,2-diamine (0.37 g, 2.72 mmol) in DMF (10 mL) was added. After being stirred at room temperature overnight, the mixture was concentrated in vacuo. The residue was redissolved in THF (5 mL) and citrate buffer (5.3 mL; 0.4 M), followed by NaBH3CN (0.31 g, 4.9 mmol), were added. The resulting mixture was stirred at room temperature overnight. The mixture was made basic (pH 8) with aqueous NaOH (8 mL; 1 M) and the aqueous layer was extracted twice with DCM (15 mL). The combined organic layers were dried (Na2SO4) and concentrated. The residue was purified by LC-MS prep to give 1-benzyl-3-(trifluoromethyl)piperazine (66 mg, 12%).
