Abstract

In order to develop an effective synthetic route to 2-amino-5-aryl-1,3,4-oxadiazoles containing trifluoroethoxy groups, a novel intermediate 2-amino-5-[4-(2′,2′,2′-trifluoroethoxy)-phenyl]-1,3,4- oxadiazole was prepared and its structure was confirmed by mass spectrometry and 1H NMR spectroscopy. The chlorine atom was not substituted by trifluoroethoxy groups, when syntheses of the intermediate by direct trifluoroethoxylation of 2-amino-5-(4-chlorophenyl)-1,3,4-oxadiazole was tried. The resulting product was characterized as N-[5-(4-chlorophenyl)-1,3,4-oxadiazol-2-yl]-4-chlorobenzamide. A possible reaction mechanism is suggested.
