Regioselective ring opening of 1-trifluoromethyl epoxy ethers 2 was achieved with alkyl and phenyl sodium thiolates to afford new 3-(alkylthio and phenylthio)-1,1,1-trifluoroalkan-2-ones 3-5 in good yields.
A short, selective and general route to α-amino trifluoromethyl ketones and corresponding alcohols is described via an easy epoxidation of 1-CF3 enol ethers followed by an opening with various secondary amines.

anti-(Trifluoromethyl) beta-amino alcohols 2 have been prepared in good yields and with 90% diastereoisomeric excess through a reaction of 1-(trifluoromethyl) epoxy ethers 3 with dimethylaluminum amide, followed by the in situ chelation-controlled stereoselective reduction of the intermediate amino ketone. The salen-mediated chiral epoxidation of 1-(trifluoromethyl) enol ether 4a led to the homochiral epoxy ethers 11a and 12a in a good enantiomeric excess. Reaction with dimethylaluminum amide followed by a reduction step provided the chiral amino alcohols 15a and 16a, respectively.
Stereoselective synthesis and inhibitor properties towards human leucocyte elastase of chiral β-peptidyl trifluoromethyl alcohols.
The synthesis of chiral peptidyl trifluoromethyl alcohols 9 and 10 was performed from easily available epoxy ethers 3, through different stereocontrol of the reduction of the azido ketone 4. One stereoisomer in each pair of the diastereoisomeric peptidyl trifluoromethyl alcohols 9 and 10 behaved as reversible inhibitors of human leucocyte elastase, a serine protease implicated in inflammatory related diseases.
Fluorinated Synthons: Reactivity of 1-RF-Epoxy Ethers with Lewis Acids
Fluorinated epoxy ethers 2, 5, 6, and 12 react with Lewis acids to give different ring opening products, depending upon the structure and the experimental conditions. Both nucleophile-assisted and stepwise processes can occur. In all cases, except when a phenyl group stabilizes the C beta secondary carbenium ion, the C alpha-O bond is broken leading to addition, transposition, or cyclization products. EtAlCl(2) reacted with epoxy ethers 2a-c providing chlorohydrins 3a and the transposed products 4b,c and 5b,c. With epoxy ethers 6a-c aldehydes 7a-c were formed through a transposition. Epoxy ethers 9a-c underwent ring opening to the chloroketones 10a-c with EtAlCl(2) and TiCl4 and 9a gave the glycol ether 11a with Me(3)Al. Epoxy ether 12a was transformed into a mixture of chlorohydrin 13a(1) (S*R*) and the cyclized product 14a (S*R*) with TiCl4 or EtAlCl(2) at -78 degrees C. At room temperature, the cyclized products 14a (S*R*) or 15c were selectively obtained in good yields from 12a and 12c, respectively, with TiCl4.
