N,N-DIALLYL-2,2,2-TRIFLUOROACETAMIDE

N,N-Diallyl-2,2,2-trifluoroacetamide may be used as a substrate for ring-closing metathesis (RCM) reaction.

N,N-Diallyl-2,2,2-trifluoroacetamide (DAF) is an organic building block used in chemical synthesis. The capability of silica immobilized Hoveyda-Grubbs type catalysts to facilitate the ring-closing metathesis of (-)-β-citronellene and DAF has been investigated. Its density and refractive index at 25°C is 1.1300g/cm³ and 1.4130 respectively.
