c. As described in b, a mixture of 5.0 g (15.8 mmol)
of oxirane I and 1.9 g (31.6 mmol) of ethylenediamine
in 30 ml of acetonitrile was heated for 4 h under reflux
with stirring. The mixture was cooled and filtered, the
filtrate was passed through a layer of silica gel to
remove tarry and salt-like impurities, the solvent was
distilled off, and the residue was subjected to fractional
distillation. Yield of III 2.9 g (52%).
solid containing propanamide II and benzimidazole IV
at a ratio of 25:75 (19F NMR). It was extracted with
methylene chloride, and the extract was evaporated.
The residue, 0.48 g, was purified by column chroma-
tography on silica gel using methylene chloride–
hexane (3:1) as eluent, followed by recrystallization
from hexane. Yield of II 0.42 g (12%). The undis-
solved material remaining after extraction with methy-
lene chloride was treated as described above in b to
isolate 0.94 g (48%) of benzimidazole IV.
d. A flask equipped with a dry-ice reflux condenser
and a magnetic stirrer was charged with 2.84 g
(47.3 mmol) of ethylenediamine and 55 ml of diethyl
ether, 7.5 g (23.7 mmol) of compound I was added,
and the mixture was stirred for 3 h at room tempera-
ture. A light yellow solid gradually separated and was
filtered off, the filtrate was passed through a layer of
silica gel to remove tarry and salt-like impurities, the
solvent was distilled off, and the residue was subjected
to fractional distillation to isolate 5.7 g (67%) of
propanamide III. According to the 19F NMR data, the
light yellow solid contained a small amount of com-
pound VI [7].
2,2,3,3,3-Pentafluoro-N-[2-(2,2,2-trifluoro-1-tri-
fluoromethylethylamino)ethyl]propanamide (III).
a. A glass ampule was charged with 2.52 g (42 mmol)
of ethylenediamine and 25 ml of dioxane, the mixture
was cooled with dry ice, 6.68 g (21 mmol) of com-
pound I was added, and the ampule was sealed,
allowed to warm up to room temperature, and heated
for 2 h on a water bath at ~80°C with intermittent
shaking. The ampule was then cooled and opened, the
mixture was poured into ice water, the organic layer
was separated and dried over MgSO4, and the product
was isolated by fractional distillation. Yield of III 3.1 g
(41%), colorless viscous liquid, bp 220–222°C. IR
