Abstract
A novel synthetic approach towards α-trifluoromethyl-phenethylamines was elaborated by reduction of the electron deficient β-aryl-α-trifluoromethyl enamines and imines with sodium cyanoborohydride in the presence of trifluoroacetic acid. The starting imines were prepared by the reaction of primary amines with β-aryl-α-trifluoromethyl enamines or β-chloro-β-(trifluoromethyl)styrenes.
