Abstract
Conclusions1.The first representative of an imine derivative of trifluoropyrotartaric acid has been obtained, viz., methyl 2-(benzenesulfonylimino)-3,3,3-trifluoropropionate, and its ability to C-alkylate N,N-dimethylaniline, indole, 2-methylindole, 1-methyl-2-phenylindole, 2-phenylindole, and thiophene has been demonstrated.2.C-alkylation of aromatic π-systems by methyl 2-(benzenesulfonylimino)-3,3,3-trifluoropropionate is regiospecific at the site of maximum π-density and is hindered by increasing the hardness of the π-base.
