RESUMO
Several CF3 Se-substituted α-amino acid derivatives, such as (R)-2-amino-3-((trifluoromethyl)selanyl)propanoates (5 a/6 a), (S)-2-amino-4-((trifluoromethyl)selanyl)butanoates (5 b/6 b), (2R,3R)-2-amino-3-((trifluoromethyl)selanyl)butanoates (5 c/6 c), (R)-2-((S)-2-amino-3-phenylpropanamido)-3-((trifluoromethyl)selanyl)propanoates (11 a/12 a), and (R)-2-(2-aminoacetamido)-3-((trifluoromethyl)selanyl)propanoates (11 b/12 b), were readily synthesized from natural amino acids and [Me4 N][SeCF3 ]. The primary inâ vitro cytotoxicity assays revealed that compounds 6 a, 11 a and 12 a were more effective cell growth inhibitors than the other tested CF3 Se-substituted derivatives towards MCF-7, HCT116, and SK-OV-3 cells, with their IC50 values being less than 10â µM for MCF-7 and HCT116 cells. This study indicated the potentials of CF3 Se moiety as a pharmaceutically relevant group in the design and synthesis of novel biologically active molecules.

Trifluoromethyl trifluoromethanesulfonate has proved to be an excellent reservoir of difluorophosgene and a promising click ligation for amines in the preparation of urea derivatives, heterocycles, and carbamoyl fluorides under metal- and additive-free conditions. The reactions are rapid, efficient, selective, and versatile, and can be performed in benign solvents, giving products in excellent yields with minimal efforts for purification. The characteristics of the reactions meet the requirements of a click reaction. The use of trifluoromethyl trifluoromethanesulfonate as a click reagent is advantageous over other "CO" sources (e.g., TsOCF3 , PhCO2 CF3 , CsOCF3 , AgOCF3 , and triphosgene) because this reagent is readily accessible; easy to scale up; and highly reactive, even under metal- and additive-free conditions. It is anticipated that CF3 SO3 CF3 will be increasingly as important as SO2 F2 as a click agent in future drug design and development.
