Heterocyclization of N-(1-chloro-2,2,2-trifluoroethylidene)carbamates with β-enaminoesters—a novel synthetic strategy to functionalized trifluoromethylated pyrimidines

A novel synthetic strategy to 4-trifluoromethyl substituted 2-oxo-1,2-dihydropyrimidine-5-carboxylates has been developed based on the cyclocondensation of β-enaminoesters with N-(1-chloro-2,2,2-trifluoroethylidene)carbamates.
