General description
Methyl 3,3,3-trifluoropyruvate is an alkyl 3,3,3-trifluoropyruvate that can be synthesized using hexafluoropropene-1,2-oxide (HFPO) as a starting material. It reacts with aromatic amines, benzylic manoamines and diamines to form the corresponding hemiaminals.
Application
Methyl 3,3,3-trifluoropyruvate may be used in the synthesis of:
- 2-hydroxy-2-trifluoromethylbutan-4-olides
- 2-(trifluoromethyl)butan-4-olides
- 4-trifluoromethyl-(2H)-pyridazin-3-ones
- methyl 3-methoxy-2-trifluoromethylacrylate
