Reaction of (trifluoromethyl)trimethylsilane with oxazolidin-5-ones: Synthesis of peptidic and nonpeptidic trifluoromethyl ketones

(Trifluoromethyl)trimethylsilane (TMS-CF3, the Ruppert Reagent) reacts with a variety of amino acid derived N-substituted oxazolidin-5-ones in excellent yields. Mild acid hydrolysis of adducts with electron-releasing substituents at C-2 affords N-substituted α-amino trifluoromethyl ketones (TFMKs)....
