Abstract
The hitherto unreported reactions of β-alkoxyvinyl polyfluoroalkyl ketones with ethyl isocyanoacetate and equimolar amounts of potassium-tert-butoxide proceeded mainly in the β-position of the α,β-unsaturated ketones in cases of α-nonsubstituted 1a–e and α-methyl substituted ketones 1g–j. Other α- or β-substituted ketones 1f,k–o gave mainly products 4 of initial attack at the carbonyl carbon. Depending on the solvent, the major products of β-attack do exist in different tautomeric forms. Generally the openchain enol tautomers 5 predominate in the polar DMSO-d(6), while the cyclic γ-hemiaminals 8 are the major tautomers in the less polar CDCl(3). Acid treatment of the latter compounds 8 led to the hitherto unknown ethyl 5-polyfluoroalkyl-pyrrole-2-carboxylates 11 by elimination of formic acid. Catalytic hydrogenation of pyrrole 11a was used for the synthesis of earlier unknown 5-trifluoromethyl proline 16.
