A One-Pot Domino Synthesis of 5-(Trifluoromethyl)-2-thiazolamine

5-(Trifluoromethyl)-2-thiazolamine is a key intermediate for manufacturing numerous pharmaceuticals and chemicals. Here, a low-cost, one-pot multicomponent domino synthetic route has been reported for the synthesis of 5-(trifluoromethyl)-2-thiazolamine, which was successfully prepared from 3-bromo-1,1,1-trifluoro-2-propanone, phosphorus pentasulfide and cyanamide in the presence of sodium carbonate with the yield of 56%.
