4-Nitro-3-trifluoromethyl aniline

4-Nitro-3-trifluoromethyl aniline is an organic intermediate, which can be used to prepare 4-bromo-2-nitrotrifluorotoluene, an intermediate of medicine and optical waveguide materials, and flutamide, a non steroidal anti androgen drug.

Orange to Brown to Dark red powder to crystal.

4-Nitro-3-(trifluoromethyl)aniline is a metabolite of Flutamide (F598850) (FLU-1 or M2).

A metabolite of Flutamide (FLU-1 or M2).

The thiazolium salt 3 (3.30 mg, 0.0122 mmol) was added to a solution of 1-azido-4-nitrobenzene (0.122 mmol) and t-BuOH (18.0 mg, 0.244 mmol) in degassed THF (0.50 mL) under argon at r.t. The resulting suspension was stirred for 5 min, and then NaOt-Bu (23.4 mg, 0.244 mmol) was added in one portion, and the mixture was stirred (Table 2). Water (2 mL) was added, and the products were extracted with EtOAc (2 ?á 2 mL), the combined organic phase was dried over anhyd MgSO4, filtered, and concentrated in vacuo. Purification was achieved by passing the resulting residue through a short pad of silica (eluting with 50% light PE-EtOAc) unless otherwise stated.
