Abstract;.ALPHA.-Trifluoromethyl-.ALPHA.,.BETA.-unsaturated esters (1) have served as building blocks for the preparation of trifluoromethylated biological active compounds. We developed a new method for the stereoselective preparation of (E)/(Z)-esters (1). The new route to esters (1) was based on the trifluoromethylation of .ALPHA.-bromo-.ALPHA.,.BETA.-unsaturated esters. We have applied esters (1) for the synthesis of 2',3'-dideoxy-2'-trifluoromethylnucleosides and L-2',3'-dideoxy-2'-trifluoromethyl-4'-thionucleosides. (author abst.)
