The aromatic substitution of three representative N-alkyl trifluoromethyl imines 1a-c (R: a, benzyl; b, benzhydryl; c, methyl), obtained from primary alkyl amines and trifluoroacetaldehyde ethyl hemiacetal, was used to investigate the preparation of 1-aryl-2,2,2-trifluoroethylamines. In the presence of BF3·OEt2, the reaction of imine 1 with various aromatic compounds proceeded smoothly at room temperature, giving N-alkyl-1-aryl-2,2,2-trifluoroethylamines in moderate-to-high yields. Moreover, successful regioselective removal of N-benzyl and N-benzhydryl groups was achieved by hydrolysis in hydrochloric acid or by palladium-catalyzed hydrogenolysis.

N-Alkyl trifluoroacetaldehyde imines 1a,b (R: a, benzyl; b, diphenylmethyl), prepared from trifluoroacetaldehyde ethyl hemiacetal (TFAE) and primaryl amines, readily reacted with electron-rich heteroarenes, N,N- dimethylaniline and phenols in the presence of BF3. Product analysis showed moderate to high yields of N-alkyl-1-aryl-2,2,2-trifluoroethylamines 2-7. Hydrolysis of representative N-diphenylmethyl amines 5b and 7b, respectively yielded the 1-aryl-2,2,2-trifluoroethylamines 10 and 11.
