RESUMO
5-Benzyloxy-4-trifluoromethyl-1,3-oxazoles, obtained from 5-fluoro-4-trifluoromethyloxazoles and benzyl alcohols, are capable for rearrangements. A 1,3 shift of a benzyl group is the key step of a new general route toward alpha-trifluoromethyl substituted aromatic and heteroaromatic amino acids, demonstrating that 5-fluoro-4-trifluoromethyl-1,3-oxazole is a synthetic Tfm-Gly equivalent. On reaction with benzpinacol partially fluorinated oxazoles are transformed into bis(trifluoromethyl) substituted 2,5-diamino adipic acid and N-benzoyl-2-benzhydryl-3,3,3-trifluoroalanine.

Alpha-trifluoromethyl alpha-amino acids with unsaturated side-chains have been prepared from 5-fluoro-4-trifluoromethyloxazole and allyl, propargyl as well as terpene alcohols in a one-pot procedure.
